00:00There's no plan to hide, that's what the lawyer of the former police colonel Roina Garma said regarding her trip to America.
00:08Witness, JP Soriano.
00:14The family and the lawyer of the retired police colonel Roina Garma still can't figure out why she and her daughter were stopped from entering America.
00:23There's no good reason to cancel Garma's visa because they don't have a case against her in court.
00:29The only thing she's facing is the site and contempt of the House Quad Committee that is investigating the Duterte drug war.
00:38When she was allowed to fly, we thought that it is already okay.
00:43Because there's no problem, there's no problem with her visa.
00:51She wasn't able to fly.
00:53Then when she landed there, they investigated her again.
01:00But when she landed in San Francisco, America, Garma was stopped and put under the custody of the United States Customs and Border Protection or USCBP.
01:11The Philippine Consulate General in San Francisco is now in talks with the U.S. authorities, according to the Department of Foreign Affairs.
01:19On November 4, Garma was released from the custody of the U.S. Customs and Border Protection or USCBP.
01:24She was accused of ordering the killing of the former Philippine Charity Sweepstakes Office Board Secretary Wesley Barayuga.
01:31Garma was previously suspected.
01:34She admitted that the former President Duterte ordered her to carry out the Davao Model of the drug war across the country.
01:43Under this, the police have evidence that Duterte ordered the killing.
01:50In spite of that, Garma's lawyer insisted that the client will not hide in America.
01:57Garma has been planning to visit her relatives in America for a long time.
02:02And she took a short break from the intense pressure she is facing because of what she knows.
02:08The Bureau of Immigration still has no answer to the questions as to why Garma's U.S. visa was cancelled,
02:14even though America has authority over her, according to her lawyer.
02:19For them, maybe if there is a case already, if a person is facing investigation already, even if there is no case yet,
02:29it is not good for them.
02:32So probably that is the reason, JP, that's why they rented her visa.
02:40DOJ said earlier that they are ready to put Garma in the Witness Protection Program when she returns to the Philippines.
02:47Garma is facing a hearing in the Senate and the Quad Committee when she returns.
02:52For GMA Integrated News, JP Soriano is your witness.
