01:37.2
Hindi pa rin umaalis ng Pilipinas ang religious leader na si Apolo Kibuloy.
01:42.2
Ayon kay Justice Assistant Secretary Jose Dominic Labano, batay sa kanilang huling impormasyon patuloy na nagpatago si Kibuloy sa Pilipinas.
01:54.7
Yes, we do have information that he is still within the country.
02:00.0
And new developments from the police.
02:02.4
But as far as our information is concerned at the DOJ, he is currently still in the country.
02:09.0
Ayon pa sa DOJ, hiniling na rin ng prosecutors na maglabas ng whole departure order o HDO laban kay Kibuloy na umaharap sa kasong child abuse at qualified trafficking.
02:21.4
Alleged sexual abuser and religious leader Apolo Kibuloy is still in the Philippines according to the Department of Justice.
02:28.5
DOJ spokesperson assented.
02:30.0
Justice Assistant Secretary Nico Clavano bears this in a palace briefing on Thursday, April 25.
02:35.9
We do have information that he is still within the country unless there are new developments from the police.
02:43.0
But as far as our information is concerned at the DOJ, he is currently still in the country.
02:49.7
Clavano also says that the active cases against Kibuloy have been transferred from Davao to Pasig City.
02:55.5
Just as an update as well, we've transferred the cases from Davao.
03:02.2
So that the same team of prosecutors may be able to prosecute both cases together and jointly.
03:12.6
We are still, obviously he's still at large, so the law enforcement agents are still on the lookout.
03:19.4
And they've continued the operations to be able to arrest on the basis of the warrants that have been issued by the court.
03:27.0
Aside from the charges he is facing in the Philippines,
03:30.0
Kibuloy is also on the most wanted list of the U.S. Federal Bureau of Investigation for Human Trafficking.
03:35.4
President Ferdinand Marcos Jr. previously told Kibuloy to submit to the due process of the law.
03:40.6
However, the pastor said he would not surrender unless the government promised that the U.S. would not intervene.
03:47.1
Marcos dismissed Kibuloy's request, likening it to a tail wagging of the dog.
03:51.0
The PLP is now studying the license of the guns held by Pastor Apolo Kibuloy.
03:58.1
But the pastor who is now weak,
04:00.0
is the one who is still at large.
04:03.0
The PLP Chief Police General Romel Francisco Marvilang Kulang has just signed the license to own and possess firearms, or LTAP,
04:11.0
by the Kingdom of Jesus Christ founder, Pastor Apolo Kibuloy.
04:14.3
Following the recommendation of the PLP Firearms and Explosives Office, or FEO,
04:19.8
Kibuloy's recension is still pending.
04:21.8
This means that if it is approved, the pastor cannot hold or own any guns.
04:27.5
We know that the case against the pastor,
04:29.5
or against the accused,
04:31.5
carries a lifetime imprisonment or capital offense.
04:35.5
So here, he will hold.
04:37.5
Henceforth, the Firearms and Explosives Office recommended to revoke and cancel the license to own and possess firearms,
04:45.5
and registration of firearms.
04:47.5
In another text message,
04:49.5
the PLP Chief Marvilang Kulang said
04:51.5
that he will consider the legalities of the recommendation before signing.
04:55.5
It is clear that this recommendation is based on the FEO's recommendation.
04:57.5
It is clear that this recommendation is based on the FEO's recommendation.
04:59.5
It is clear that this recommendation is based on the FEO's recommendation.
05:01.5
And hopefully, within the week, the approved decision of the PLP will be released.
05:05.5
At present, Kibuloy is wanted for child abuse, sexual abuse, and human trafficking.
05:11.5
This is the basis of the recommendation to revoke the license.
05:15.5
Based on the records of the PLP,
05:17.5
there are 11 guns registered under the name of the pastor.
05:19.5
At the time that the pastor revokes the LTAP,
05:21.5
this is considered a loose firearm and needs to be revoked within six months.
05:26.5
Once the recommendation is released,
05:27.5
this will apply not only in the case of Pastor Kibuloy and one other,
05:34.5
this will be the president of the individual judicial entity that has the same case.
05:41.5
Despite having several guns,
05:43.5
the PLP still does not consider Kibuloy to be armed and dangerous.
05:46.5
Because he does not have a record of any crime.
05:49.5
At present, the operatives of Pastor Kibuloy are still looking for clues.
05:53.5
There is no indication that he has been released from the country.
05:55.5
There is no indication that he has been released from the country.
05:57.5
The Department of Justice believes that
06:00.5
the religious group leader, Apolo Kibuloy, is still in the Philippines.
06:07.5
On Thursday, April 25,
06:10.5
DOJ Assistant Secretary Nico Clavano said that
06:13.5
based on the information they have,
06:17.5
Kibuloy is still staying in the country.
06:20.5
The United States Federal Bureau of Investigation or FBI
06:25.5
is the religious group leader in cases of sex trafficking.
06:32.5
The Department of Justice requests the issuance of a whole departure order
06:36.5
against televangelist Apolo Kibuloy
06:38.5
to ensure that he cannot leave the country
06:40.5
and evade prosecution for his crimes.
06:42.5
Two local courts in Davao City and Pasig City
06:45.5
have already ordered the arrest of the founder and leader of the Kingdom of Jesus Christ
06:49.5
for alleged human trafficking and violation of the Anti-Child Abuse Law
06:53.5
or Public Act No. 7610.
06:57.5
Department of Justice Spokesperson Assistant Secretary Nico Clavano says
07:01.5
that prosecutors in the cases against Kibuloy
07:03.5
have asked the courts to issue a whole departure order against Kibuloy.
07:07.5
I believe the prosecutors have already filed their motion
07:11.5
to issue a whole departure order.
07:14.5
These are normal legal processes that the prosecutors are very used to.
07:20.5
So once you have a respondent,
07:22.5
or an accused that is a flight risk,
07:25.5
especially given the resources that this person has,
07:29.5
then the prosecutors are very diligent
07:32.5
in making sure that that doesn't happen,
07:35.5
that the accused is able to leave the country
07:39.5
without actually facing the allegations in the proper forum.
07:43.5
Clavano also confirms that Kibuloy is still in the Philippines
07:46.5
based on information received by the DOJ.
07:49.5
Qualified trafficking is a non-bailable offense
07:51.5
while a child abuse case has a recommended bail
07:54.5
of P180,000 for sexual assault
07:57.5
and P80,000 for maltreatment.
08:00.5
Aside from the charges in Philippine courts,
08:02.5
former President Rodrigo Duterte's spiritual advisor
08:05.5
is also on the most wanted list
08:07.5
of the US Federal Bureau of Investigation
08:10.5
for conspiracy to engage in sex trafficking by force,
08:13.5
fraud and coercion,
08:14.5
sex trafficking of children,
08:16.5
and bulk cash smuggling.
