00:00Yesterday, a boat was washed ashore in Malabon, and two men were drowned there.
00:09One was killed after being hit by a boat.
00:13One of the suspects was arrested.
00:15He even drowned in a water tank.
00:18EJ Gomez was there.
00:21It was past 2 o'clock on Friday,
00:25when a group of men entered a pond in Jacobe Compounds in Barangay Maysilo, Malabon.
00:32Suddenly, there was a rock, and it quickly got chaotic.
00:37One man was chased, and the other was pulled.
00:40A man took a stick.
00:43Others punched until a small splinter came out.
00:48A woman was also hit by another man,
00:51until two men repeatedly punched the other two men who were cornered at the gate of the compound.
00:59The man in a red T-shirt did not stop punching,
01:02and he ran with his stick, along with the other suspects.
01:06They left the two victims, who were covered in bruises, and had bruises on their bodies.
01:12One of them was a rival in the hospital.
01:15This is Kristan J. Sevilla, 22 years old.
01:18My brother's head was hit by the gate,
01:22and when they chased him, they just threw him in the pond.
01:27Then they continued to hit the house, while someone was punching my brother.
01:35Her cousin, who was accompanied by Kristan,
01:38who was called by the suspects and her friends who were present at the scene,
01:43Another victim was taken to the hospital.
01:46According to the police, two groups of people started a ramble,
01:50but it turned out that the second group was the one who took the CCTV.
01:55The first fight involved only one of the suspects.
02:02The fight did not start with the CCTV because it was outside.
02:06They were fixing the barangay and did not blutter.
02:10But...
02:11Our victims still went there.
02:13They fought the first one.
02:15Of course, the other one was triggered.
02:17He was stabbed in the ear by one of our victims.
02:21That's where it started.
02:23They heard painful words.
02:25They started a ramble.
02:27According to the police, the suspects hid in their own house.
02:32One of them hid inside a water tank.
02:36Quickly, get down.
02:37Get down!
02:38Your friends are already down there.
02:40Yes, get down.
02:41The other one was already down there.
02:43I told you that no one was there.
02:45Get down.
02:47Get your clothes.
02:48The suspects who were detained at the custodial facility of Malabon City Police will face a murder complaint.
02:56For GMA Integrated News, EJ Gomez, 24 Hours.
03:04It was a fierce fight and there were no robberies.
03:07This was done by 8 police officers from the Eastern Police District
03:11who were stabbed because of a robbery in a questionable operation in Las Piñas.
03:16Nico Wahe was the target.
03:22The 8 police officers of the Eastern Police District Special Operations Unit who were involved in the robbery came to the Las Piñas Prosecutor's Office for an inquest.
03:30They did not initiate an interrogation.
03:32According to their lawyer who did not face the camera, the police were innocent and the operation was legitimate according to their officials.
03:40A Chinese businessman was operated on April 2 because of the case of illegal possession of firearms.
03:46But the police got 27 million pesos cash.
03:50Some foreign currencies, gold bar, and expensive souvenirs were also taken away.
03:56We talked to the Chinese businessman with the help of his friend who served as a translator
04:01but he did not face the camera.
04:03He said that 85 million pesos were taken from him.
04:07He was also not in the warrant of arrest.
04:09Although their names have the same spelling of the person with the warrant,
04:13his first name is his last name.
04:16While the last name of the person with the warrant is his first name.
04:19The police arrested him wrongly because according to him,
04:22he was not introduced from the DSO but from the police.
04:26He also did not catch the police.
04:29He was charged with asking for money in exchange for his freedom.
04:32He also showed pictures and videos proving that the police interrogated the CCTV cameras in his house.
04:38The Las Pinas Police said that the operating unit coordinated with them but the process was not correct.
04:58There was no time for us to fully assess the warrant.
05:02They have the intention that we did not do it.
05:05But wait, the coordination was good.
05:08Usually, 24 hours before the operation,
05:11the operating unit records their walk to the police station.
05:15They did not say that the target of the operation was caught.
05:19The DSOU chief was also relieved that until now,
05:23they have not reported on the incident.
05:26Administratively relieved was also the EPD District Director,
05:29Police Brigadier General Villa Mortoliao and all the police in the EPD DSOU.
05:34Aside from robbery, unlawful arrest, illegal detention,
05:37and kidnapping of the policemen.
05:40For GMA Integrated News, I'm Nico Juage,
05:42for Tutok, 24 hours.
05:46The National Security Council of China,
05:49which was spied by the three Filipinos who were there,
05:52while they were spying on China,
05:54and they believe that the video was edited or scripted
05:57by the Chinese government in which the three confessed.
06:00Jonathan Andal, for Tutok.
06:06Three Filipinos were imprisoned in China
06:09because of the allegation of espionage there.
06:11One of them is their sister.
06:13I exclusively talked to her on the condition that she will not be named.
06:17We call on the government of the Philippines,
06:21the President, to help them return to the Philippines.
06:26Last November, they were unable to contact the sister in China
06:30who said she was going to Wenxiang City for a job interview.
06:33Did she mention what job it was?
06:36No, sir. She did not mention it to us.
06:38According to Chinese media,
06:40there was a video of the three Filipinos confessing
06:44that they were spies of the Philippines.
06:46My conversation confirmed that her sister was in the video.
06:49But it was not a real espionage, even though she admitted it in the video.
06:54At first, our sister knew about the laws in China.
06:58She also told us that this was prohibited there.
07:03Even if they wanted to leave China,
07:05they did not know, including our consulate in Guangzhou,
07:08where the three were imprisoned.
07:10They had nothing to do but wait for news
07:13and send messages to the sister.
07:16Be strong.
07:17Believe in God that everything will be fine.
07:21We love you very much.
07:24The National Security Council stated that the three were not spies
07:28and the NSC believed that the video was released by China.
07:32The video is heavily edited,
07:34the so-called confessions of the women.
07:37In our opinion, the videos seem to be scripted.
07:42In the videos, there are references of the Philippine Intelligence Agency
07:49or Philippine Spy Intelligence Service.
07:52There is no such thing as a government agency
07:56or government intelligence unit.
08:00How can the three be spies?
08:02They are just ordinary citizens.
08:04They have no military training and no access to the military bases of China.
08:08China also did not show any evidence that the three Filipinos were used as spies,
08:13unlike the case of the Chinese spies who were arrested in Palawan last January
08:18who were seen with a drone.
08:20Yusek Malaya thinks that China is possibly involved.
08:24We are a legitimate operation
08:29to catch those who are spying on us.
08:32We assure the Chinese
08:35that all rights of a foreigner in the Philippines will be respected.
08:41According to the Palawan Provincial Government,
08:43the three arrested Filipinos are former scholars of Hainan University in China
08:47who have a sisterhood agreement with the Palawan LGU
08:51so that Filipinos can study freely there.
08:54These three former scholars are from first and second batch.
09:00So they already finished their studies by 2021.
09:05So they went back here in Palawan,
09:08but applied for a job back in China.
09:11They went back to China as migrant workers or OFWs.
09:17One is working there as an English instructor at a university.
09:21The other is in a pharmaceutical company.
09:24The other is working in a coconut factory.
09:27There are 11 other Filipino students at Hainan University.
09:31Three of them want to go back to the Philippines because of fear.
09:35There's no more intention of doing the same agreement with Hainan University
09:39to send scholars in China.
