00:00Live from the GMA Network Center, this is 24 Horas.
00:12Good evening, John Visayas and Mindanao.
00:18More than P100 million worth of printed envelopes need to be destroyed by the Comelec.
00:25The Supreme Court has not yet issued a statement on the release of these envelopes.
00:31The Comelec clarified that the envelopes have not yet been printed for the local candidates.
00:36Sandra Aguinaldo is reporting.
00:42Last night, the Comelec suspended the printing of envelopes in the National Printing Office.
00:47This was after the Supreme Court issued a Temporary Restraining Order or TRO
00:53in accordance with the petition of five aspirants.
00:55The Comelec did not put them in the envelopes printed
00:59because two of them were declared nuisance candidates
01:02while the others were disqualified, the application was rejected,
01:06or they were denied the Certificate of Candidacy.
01:08But the Supreme Court said that they should be included in the envelopes.
01:12The envelopes that were printed will be destroyed.
01:15The Comelec wrote to the Commission on Audit to let them know what destruction will be done.
01:20They were invited to witness it.
01:22This is the part of the envelopes that are worth 6 million pesos.
01:27The Comelec is saying that they have been printed but they can no longer use them.
01:32The Comelec has spent 150 million pesos on printing these envelopes.
01:41The Supreme Court will also follow the order to add the name of five aspirants to the newly printed envelopes
01:47even if it is not easy according to the Comelec.
01:50We immediately ordered to change the election management system.
01:54It is a system where everyone knows how and what envelopes will be printed.
02:02We will also change all 2,000 envelopes of the entire country
02:09because they need to include the name of the so-called candidate.
02:13The Comelec clarified that the envelopes have not yet been printed for the local candidates.
02:17That is why it is more effective to add the name of the senatorial aspirant, Mustafa, to the envelopes.
02:25The alphabetical order of the name will change the number of aspirants under it.
02:31The Comelec also has other petitions like this one to the Supreme Court.
02:37We will print the envelopes again and there will be a new directive.
02:41This will not put pressure on the Supreme Court with all due respect.
02:45We will do it again, especially if the position involved is a national position.
02:49So we will go back to zero.
02:51We will always go back to zero if there will be a temporary restraining order to add the name to our envelopes.
03:00If the Supreme Court will wait for all the petitions it is hearing,
03:05before continuing the printing, they will run out of time according to the Comelec.
03:10With all due respect, we cannot wait because we do not know when the Supreme Court will take action.
03:18We cannot sleep with them because the Comelec is an independent body.
03:23And of course, we respect the independence of the Supreme Court.
03:27On Monday or Tuesday, it is possible to continue printing the envelopes.
03:31To make it faster, it is possible to use four printers of the NPO,
03:36aside from the two already in use.
03:38Don't worry, countrymen.
03:40The Comelec is already guaranteeing. We are in control of the situation.
03:44For GMA Integrated News, Sandra Aguinaldo, for Tuto, 24 Hours.
03:50One of the three suspects was charged with the murder of a businesswoman in Bulacan
03:56who was dispatched to Manoan, Labi through a drum raid.
04:01The same was done to the sister of the actress, Rochelle Barameda,
04:04who also went to the NBI for a fingerprint analysis of the suspect,
04:09the one accused of fighting Manoan, and the alleged motive,
04:12Alamid, for my Tuto.
04:17200,000 Pesos Manoan was promised to be paid by Mastermind
04:22to fulfill the Gun For Hire of Noli and Mervin
04:26to bring down the 62-year-old businesswoman
04:30According to the QCPD,
04:31in the family's conversation, the victim's name was not mentioned.
04:34The suspect was found in a drum in San Jose del Monte, Bulacan this month.
04:39Mastermind gave the first payment of 100,000.
04:44When they accomplished their job of killing the victim,
04:50the businesswoman, they will be given an additional 100,000.
04:56According to the QCPD,
04:57along with the order of Mastermind to take a video of the victim before killing it
05:02until they put it in a drum and throw it away.
05:05This is what the investigation of the QCPD showed
05:08when they admitted one of the three suspects in the kidnapping of the victim
05:13that happened this January 5.
05:15In his extrajudicial room, they plugged him with an electric wire.
05:21Mastermind ordered them to delay it for 5-10 minutes
05:26to make sure that he was really dead.
05:29When he was dead, Mastermind ordered them to throw him anywhere.
05:37In the statement given by the witness in charge of the QCPD,
05:40the victim of the two armed suspects was arrested
05:43at 7 in the morning when the victim left his home subdivision in Quezon City.
05:49The QCPD did not hold him for abduction
05:53because it was just based on the statement of the witness.
05:58Noli and Mervyn were the first to be arrested
06:01after he appeared and the QCPD traced him
06:04when he withdrew money from the ATM from the victim's account.
06:08We saw in the CCTV footage that the one who withdrew money from the account
06:13was not his father, but the two suspects.
06:19Mastermind, on the other hand,
06:21was told that the next day, he will be able to contact and meet the two suspects.
06:25Surprised by his presence, he was already held by the police.
06:29I called the two suspects through messenger
06:34and when they answered, they agreed to meet
06:39somewhere here in a fast food chain in Mandaluyong.
06:43In the investigation of the QCPD,
06:45the mastermind and the victim have known each other for a long time
06:49and the origin of the crime is a fight for land.
06:52All transactions, especially land transactions, are related.
06:56Maybe our victim was also interested.
07:00That's what happened.
07:02The Quezon City Prosecutor's Office
07:04has already received the complaint of kidnapping with homicide
07:07that was filed by the QCPD
07:09against Mastermind and his accomplices Noli and Mervin.
07:12I believe that our evidence is strong.
07:15One of our suspects gave his extrajudicial confession.
07:21That means that he is one of the strongest
07:26who admitted that they committed the crime.
07:30The QCPD also confirmed in the GMA Integrated News
07:34that there is a witness against Mastermind and Noli,
07:38Alias Mervin.
07:39According to the QCPD, he was just involved in the case.
07:43He thought he was just guarding the farm.
07:45He was just surprised.
07:46Actually, it was a big help.
07:47I think that in the near future,
07:49he will be 100% convicted.
07:52He will do it because he has knowledge in crime.
07:56He wanted to give the family of the victim a chance.
08:00Alias Mervin did not comment.
08:03Alias Noli did.
08:05I'm really sorry.
08:06The so-called Mastermind of the person in front of me
08:10refused to comment on this case
08:12and the accusation of the former actress Rochelle Barameda
08:16who was also one of the suspects in the murder of her brother, Ruby Rose.
08:22But she was acquitted in the case.
08:25Ruby Rose Barameda was killed,
08:27stabbed and cemented in a drum before being thrown in Manila Bay in 2007.
08:32What can you say? Is that you?
08:34I'm her lawyer.
08:35Yes.
08:36What can you say to the Barameda family
08:39that you are still being held here?
08:41I can't say anything.
08:42I'm her lawyer.
08:43Okay.
08:44Barameda went to the National Bureau of Investigation
08:48to ask for a fingerprint analysis
08:50to confirm his allegation.
08:53For GMA Integrated News,
08:55Emilio Sumangil,
08:56Nakatutok, 24 Hours.
08:59In Caloocan,
09:01an illegal drug trafficker
09:03used by minors in his operation
09:06was arrested.
09:08He was fined P5 million.
09:13Marisol Abduraman,
09:15Nakatutok.
09:21The operatives of the drug enforcement unit of the NPD
09:25entered this house in Caloocan City.
09:29Sir!
09:30Sir!
09:31The two are inside!
09:32After the buyer sold the subject,
09:35who was considered a high-value individual,
09:37he was immediately arrested.
09:39The 15-17-year-old with the suspect was also arrested.
09:42According to the information,
09:44he was the one who distributed illegal drugs
09:49here in my area of Pace 12.
09:51He became the guy captain in Marawi.
09:54He was like a commander in Mindanao.
09:58We were looking for people who were involved in murder cases.
10:06Aside from the 25 grams of drugs
10:08obtained from the transaction,
10:10he also recovered more than 600 grams of drugs
10:13worth P4.25 million.
10:16There were big operations here.
10:19He disappeared.
10:20He returned to his province.
10:22When he was released,
10:26he returned to his market.
10:28According to the information of the drug enforcement unit of the NPD,
10:31the suspects were using minors
10:34who were distributors of illegal drugs.
10:36Since they are minors,
10:37they thought they were exempted from criminal liability.
10:41Earlier,
10:42the three were put under drug test and medical examination.
10:46They will be charged with violating the RA 9165
10:49or Comprehensive Dangerous Drugs Act.
10:51The two minors will be sent over to the DSWD.
10:55The suspects are yet to be released.
10:57For GMA Integrated News,
11:00Marisol Abduraman,
11:02NAKA TUTO,
11:03Ben Petro Oras.
11:05The NGCP belittled the participation of the Chinese government
11:10in their operations.
11:13It also made it clear
11:15that one of the factors affecting the love of illegal drugs
11:19is the lack of electricity.
11:20And Maki Pulido pointed it out.
11:25No matter how much they save on electricity,
11:29their electric bill is still expensive.
11:31The money you save
11:34will go to electricity.
11:36It seems like they will have to pay more for electricity.
11:40According to the National Grid Corporation of the Philippines,
11:43since there was an ancillary service reserve market
11:46or the sale of electricity reserves,
11:48the price went up.
11:49In January 2024,
11:51the price of electricity reserves was P23 per kWh.
11:54It went up to P59 per kWh
11:57when there was a reserve market in February 2024.
12:01This is the new norm in the sale of ancillary service
12:04that was previously hardly felt in the electric bill.
12:07Because of the opening of the reserve market,
12:10we saw an increase in the sale of ancillary service
12:15to the point that
12:16the NGCP is asking for more
12:20for the ancillary services
12:22that go to the generators
12:24compared to what the NGCP collects for itself.
12:30The facilities of the NGCP
12:32are the private corporations that supply electricity
12:34from plants to electricity consumers.
12:3740% of this is owned by the State Grid Corporation of China.
12:41Chinese is the chairman of the board of the NGCP
12:44as well as 4 out of 10 members of its board.
12:47The question raised by the camera was
12:49the participation of the NGCP's employees in management and operations.
12:54They are not management.
12:55They are representatives of the stockholders.
12:58So, it's not a management role.
13:01It's not an officer role.
13:03Because part of the NGCP is owned by the government of China,
13:07its share is already in the National Security of the country.
13:10But the NGCP is stubborn.
13:12It won't just stop the flow of electricity.
13:15The NGCP's operating network is not connected to the internet.
13:20There is no single button
13:23when you press to brown out the entire Philippines.
13:26There is also no remote meaning
13:29that you will control outside of the facility.
13:33For GMA Integrated News,
13:35Macky Pulido, for 24 Hours.
13:38For the shoes that will be chosen,
13:40at the same time that were broken in Valenzuela,
13:42the defective shoes that are more than 100 kg,
13:44are not calibrated or not sealed.
13:46Bernadette Reyes is on the spot.
13:53These shoes were weighed but the number is not enough
13:56that's why the front loader was used.
13:58In this operation of the City Hall
14:00for the public and private choice of Valenzuela,
14:03whether it's analog or digital,
14:05it can be used for the purchase of shoes.
14:08The shoes were inspected in Caruatan Public Market
14:12to make sure that they are calibrated and sealed.
14:17More than 100 shoes were broken at the same time
14:20here in Caruatan Public Market in Valenzuela.
14:23These are the shoes that are defective,
14:26not calibrated or not sealed.
14:29According to Teresa Nasukina in Palenque,
14:32there are chances that the shoes were placed
14:34in the store's weighing machine
14:36but they are lighter than the actual weight.
14:38To find out, she is weighing again the shoes
14:40that were bought in the weighing machine
14:42of the town that can be seen in the shops.
14:44Whether it's a kilo of pork or chicken or fish,
14:47it needs to be weighed correctly.
14:49When I weigh the shoes, I look at the weighing machine.
14:52I don't weigh it first.
14:54According to the City Hall,
14:56there are fines of P5,000 to P15,000
14:58for those who use shoes that are not calibrated
15:00or not sealed.
15:02The business permit may also be revoked.
15:04There is no problem with those who weigh correctly.
15:07It's okay with us. There's no problem with that.
15:10We are not hiding anything.
15:12You really need to register your place and the weighing machine.
15:20I am also compliant.
15:23According to the Fair Trade Enforcement Bureau of DTI,
15:26it is possible that they or the local government
15:29may complain about the weighing machine in the market or supermarket.
15:32If they see a weighing machine that is not calibrated,
15:35they will verify it in the weighing machine of the town.
15:38If there is a difference...
15:40For GMA Integrated News,
15:42Bernadette Reyes,
15:4424 Hours.
15:46The Philippines strengthened its cooperation
15:49with Japan and America.
15:52When President Bobong Marcos,
15:54the foreign minister of Japan,
15:57and the outgoing U.S. Vice President Kamala Harris.
16:00Tomorrow, China will be the one to help the DFA.
16:04J.P. Soriano is on the line.
16:11Even though there was a call from China,
16:13their monster ship was removed from the exclusive economic zone of the Philippines.
16:18The Philippines will still insist on the bilateral consultation mechanism
16:23or talks between the two countries in Xiamen, China tomorrow.
16:26The Philippines will demand the pull out of the monster ship.
16:29We will certainly raise the concerns we have.
16:32Until yesterday,
16:3377 nautical miles west of Capones Island
16:37saw the largest coast guard ship of China.
16:41This was commented by the Japanese foreign minister in the Philippines.
16:46Japan strongly opposes
16:50any attempt to unilaterally change the status quo by force
16:55or build up tension in the region.
16:59We strongly ask for easing of tensions.
17:02Minister Iwaya Takeshi helped President Bobong Marcos
17:07to strengthen the bilateral cooperation between the Philippines and Japan
17:11as well as the bilateral cooperation between the two countries in America.
17:16Japan will continue assistance to the Philippines
17:22including the OSA in enhancing maritime security
17:27and ODA for improving maritime safety capabilities.
17:31We stress the importance of adhering to international law
17:34especially the 1982 UNCLOS
17:37and we will work together
17:39leveraging our strengthened strategic partnership with other like-minded states.
17:43Japan also condemned the Philippine's peaceful move
17:47to fight for rights
17:49following the 2016 arbitral ruling
17:52that will destroy the 9-9 claim of China.
17:55The rule of law and rights of the Philippines in the West Philippine Sea
18:00were also discussed in a telephone conversation
18:02between President Bobong Marcos
18:04and outgoing U.S. Vice President Kamala Harris.
18:08There was no direct response from China
18:10regarding the statement of Japan and the DFA.
18:12Although the Foreign Ministry of China called on the Philippines
18:16to stop illegal activities
18:20and false accusations.
18:24For the GMA Integrated News,
18:27JP Soriano,
