00:00Let's be together.
00:07Saksi!
00:08Before the Saksi, the couple and their two children were killed in a house in Malolos,
00:25Bulacan.
00:26According to the chief investigator of Malolos Fire Station, the fire broke out at 4 a.m.
00:33The fire lasted for 30 minutes before it was completely extinguished.
00:39The investigation continues to determine the cause of the fire.
00:46It was not the doctor, but the midwife who was the cause of the 10-year-old baby's death
00:55Saksi is Jomer Apresto.
00:58My daughter is too young to die just because of that.
01:04It hurts me so much.
01:07That's my mother.
01:10I can't forgive her.
01:13At the same time of the investigation is the search for justice for the 10-year-old
01:20Mac Nathan Aquin, the doctor who followed the child, Kumadrona, or midwife, who was
01:27arrested in 2023 by the PNP-CIDG Intelligence Unit, the lying-in clinic in Balutondo, Manila.
01:34They received a complaint that the person in charge of the clinic is a female senior
01:40citizen who pretends to be a doctor.
01:43The suspect uses the name and license number of a black doctor who works in the clinic.
01:49More than 20 years have passed.
01:52According to the barangay, the suspect has been in jail and the lying-in clinic has been
01:57without a permit for a long time.
01:59There is no request.
02:00What we know is that she does not operate.
02:02What we know is that she is a licensed midwife, but not a doctor.
02:06The mother of the child confirmed that the woman who was arrested in 2023 and the woman
02:10who followed the child was alone.
02:12She only discovered the clinic online because one of her acquaintances was an assistant there.
02:17She was told that three people followed her that day.
02:21For P1,200, Marjorie was allowed to follow the child.
02:27Her child was diagnosed with anesthesia.
02:29According to the assistant in the clinic, the dose was 20cc.
02:33A few minutes after the follow-up, Marjorie noticed that her child was already crying.
02:39It's been a long time.
02:40The doctor told me that it's normal because it's a drug, including the assistant.
02:45Then I saw my child crying.
02:48We ran to the hospital.
02:52Then they arrived.
02:55Following the incident, the woman who followed her child was taken to the MPD,
02:59but she was also sent home because the child's body needed to be autopsied.
03:03The child's body was autopsied by the NBI to find out the cause of her death.
03:08But the family is still hesitating.
03:11I feel sorry for my child.
03:14We are still trying to get the report of the child's follow-up.
03:17The Philippine Society of General Surgeons reminded the parents and guardians
03:22to continue with the follow-up of licensed doctors to avoid complications.
03:28You should continue with the follow-up of doctors.
03:31In fact, the licensed doctors, even if they are not zero,
03:37have the knowledge and the capacity if they are trained to follow-up.
03:41For GMA Integrated News, I am Jomer Apresto, your witness.
03:48A police corporal was arrested for robbery extortion and carnapping.
03:53His accomplices are still looking for him.
03:56Witness, Oscar Oida.
04:01This man immediately got into a police car.
04:05After being caught by the Quezon City Police District earlier this afternoon,
04:09the suspect is also a police officer with a rank of corporal.
04:13He was arrested at the headquarters of the Northern Police District
04:17after being caught for robbery extortion and carnapping in Quezon City.
04:22According to the first victim,
04:24his motorcycle was parked in the northbound lane of EDSA
04:28by two men who introduced themselves as police officers.
04:31He got into a SUV with three other passengers.
04:36My motorcycle was left there.
04:39They took us to different places.
04:43The three passengers asked for money
04:48if they could get closer to pay them.
04:54We went to Valenzuela because one of the brothers will give us money.
04:59But when we went there, the brother was not there.
05:03We left and he waited for the other one.
05:07The victims were also injured.
05:10When they couldn't get the money, they hit one of them and he was bleeding.
05:14Then the brother called the other brother and they were fighting.
05:19He said, give me the money.
05:22If you don't give me the money, they will kill me here.
05:25So the brother immediately gave the money to the one who was caught.
05:30The vehicle has been circling for six hours
05:33before the two victims were dropped off at Dalmonte Avenue in Quezon City.
05:38The last victim was returned to where he was taken.
05:42He was caught by the CCTV of the barangay.
05:46I was dropped off there.
05:48They told me that they won't give me anything.
05:50They told me to get my motorcycle.
05:52That was the first time we were caught.
05:55They won't give us anything.
05:57Yes, that's what they told me.
05:59That was the first time they dropped you off.
06:01Yes.
06:02I told them that I can get my cell phone because I need it for my work.
06:09They said, if you want, we can help you.
06:12They want us to be selfish.
06:14I said, no.
06:15The suspect was arrested in the District Personnel Holding Administrative Section of the NPD.
06:21Our investigators validated this.
06:24This was identified through the CCTV footage that was recovered.
06:32Our operatives also verified this in the Intelligence Division of the Northern Police District.
06:44According to the information obtained by the QCPD, the police is facing another case.
06:51That's why he's presently assigned here in the Northern Police District,
06:57in the Personnel and Admin Section because he also has previous records
07:07when it comes to irregularities in the performance of duties of this police.
07:13So he has a previous involvement.
07:15The police did not care that the CEDU was investigating him.
07:20They are still looking for his accomplice.
07:22There are incidents like this where a policeman is identified.
07:26Let's not be shy to make sure that they are wearing the right uniform.
07:33Let's not be shy to ask for their ID so that we can be safe.
07:38For GMA Integrated News, I am Oscar Uyedang Inyong.
07:42Saksay!
07:44Two students fell in the river in Tuguegarao City.
07:48After being injured, they were riding a motorcycle.
07:51In the news, a rider got hit by a police patrol car.
07:56Saksay!
07:57This is John Sala of GMA Regional TV.
08:03When the motorcycle entered the road,
08:06the patrol car of the 1st Aklan Provincial Mobile Force Company was about to arrive.
08:11The patrol car tried to avoid the motorcycle but it fell to the side.
08:16The rider fell down.
08:17He was rushed to the hospital but was immediately brought back to life.
08:20This place is a state and provincial road.
08:24There is no signage that there is an intersection in this place.
08:30According to Police Captain Gonzalo Do,
08:32the BNP personnel who are driving the patrol car and the motorcycle riders are all right.
08:39In Santa Ilocos Sur,
08:40the vehicles continue to pass even though the road is wet in Barangay Banawangan.
08:45But when a car collided,
08:47it hit the other lane and collided with a truck.
08:50The front part of the car broke and the front part of the truck was damaged.
08:55The driver and his wife suffered minor injuries.
08:59They were rushed to the hospital.
09:01Based on the investigation, the road is slippery because of the rain.
09:04There is no sign of both sides but they were able to face the sun.
09:10The rescuers rushed the two students from Pinakanawan River in Tuguegarao City.
09:19They went straight to the river where they were driving the motorcycle
09:22after the rider lost control on the curved road.
09:26According to the police,
09:27the 18-19-year-old man was drinking alcohol and was not wearing a helmet.
09:33The two were hospitalized but there is no sign of him.
09:36For GMA Integrated News,
09:38I am John Sala of GMA Regional TV.
09:41Your witness.
09:44Five drug traffickers were arrested in a separate bybus operation
09:48in Rizal and Surigao City.
09:50One of them was previously arrested.
09:53Witness, Marisol Abdurrahman.
09:58Only 0.16 grams of shabu was ordered by the buyer of this man.
10:02But the bybus operation was already done.
10:06There is still some left.
10:0815 grams of shabu was ordered
10:10and it was worth Php 110,000.
10:16The target was immediately arrested and was considered a high-value individual.
10:20He was previously arrested for drugs.
10:22Our intel personnel are continuously monitoring those who were arrested before.
10:29We are also checking if they went back to the past or changed.
10:34Because he was already arrested before.
10:37In 2014, the first suspect was arrested for illegal drugs.
10:41He is said to be the one who pushed drugs in Surigao City.
10:45The Police Regional Office of Caragas is in charge
10:47because some of the suspects were students and tricycle drivers.
10:53There are many schools.
10:55Most likely, there are colleges.
10:57That is why the mandate of our regional director is very strong
11:02that we are intensifying the anti-illegal drug trade here.
11:08The suspect filed a complaint against the Comprehensive Dangerous Drugs Act
11:12and refused to give a statement.
11:20In the separate bybus operation in San Rafael, Rodriguez, Rizal,
11:23four illegal drug traffickers were arrested.
11:26I will arrest you for selling illegal drugs.
11:30Surveillance was conducted in the house for more than a week.
11:33That house is also used for drug trafficking.
11:36The drug traffickers are also there.
11:38They are also using drugs there.
11:40So, we were able to arrest them there.
11:42The 116 grams of Shabu, which is worth more than P788,000,
11:45was found in the suspect's bag.
11:50Based on the investigation,
11:51the drug supply of the suspects came from Taguig.
11:54In the custodial facility of Rodriguez Municipal Police Station,
11:57the suspects were jailed for filing a complaint
12:01against the Comprehensive Dangerous Drugs Act.
12:03Manhunts SSANG-HVI continues to remain at large.
12:08For GMA Integrated News,
12:11Marisol Abduraman is your eyewitness.
12:16Before the eyewitness,
12:17Maguindanao del Norte Mayor Maguindanao del Sur
12:22and his wife were arrested.
12:24This is due to their involvement in the robbery
12:28that resulted in the death of Vice Mayor Roldan Benito
12:32and his security aide in 2024.
12:36The CIDG served them the warrant of arrest
12:39issued by the Cotabato City Regional Trial Court
12:42for the cases of murder, frustrated murder, and attempted murder.
12:48The couple has yet to be released.
12:52Not only was OWA Administrator Arnel Ignacio arrested,
12:57but also the Deputy Administrator of the agency.
13:00This is due to the wrongful purchase of land
13:04worth more than a billion pesos.
13:08Van Myrina is the eyewitness.
13:13They were both removed.
13:15They were not resigned.
13:17This is what OWA Deputy Administrator Emma Sinclair said
13:20according to the police.
13:22Just like what was said by the head of the agency, Arnel Ignacio,
13:26who is currently being investigated.
13:28This is just a signal.
13:30We can say that this is the call of the President
13:34to all his employees.
13:38Do your job well.
13:41Do not remove the deception in your work
13:48because the President will not ask you to be removed.
13:53We tried to get Deputy Administrator Sinclair to speak
13:56through his number and email address in OWA,
13:59but we were not accepted.
14:01According to Immigrant Worker Secretary Hans Kakdak,
14:04aside from being in OWA for a long time,
14:06they are already preparing to file complaints
14:08regarding the wrongful purchase of OWA land
14:10worth 1.4 billion pesos
14:13that does not pass through the Board of Trustees.
14:16It is questionable if that is the reason for the purchase of the land.
14:19Kakdak asked for more time to finish their investigation
14:23that was first opened after a white paper was circulated in OWA.
14:27Ignacio explained to them
14:29why the transaction was not notified to the Board
14:31and how such a large amount was released
14:34that does not pass through the Board.
14:36But if Kakdak will ask,
14:38Ignacio's explanation is not enough.
14:40That is why he reported this to the President
14:42that the purchase was ordered immediately
14:44by the former Administrator.
15:06It is not clear yet
15:07if the purchase of 1.4 billion pesos will be repaid
15:10and what will happen to the purchased land of OWA.
15:13We continue to ask for Ignacio's explanation
15:15but he was the first to say in GMA Integrated News
15:18that he will speak at the right time.
15:21For GMA Integrated News,
15:23Ivan Meyrina, your witness.
15:27Three counter affidavits were filed.
15:29Dismissed Bamban Mayor Alice Wu
15:31for the three complaints she is facing
15:33in the Justice Department.
15:35In the Graf complaint,
15:36which was based on her issuing of permits
15:38to non-licensed landowners in the city,
15:41Wu argued that she only did her job as a mayor.
15:45She also has no connection to any transaction.
15:49In the falsification complaint,
15:52Wu denies that she is a Filipino citizen
15:54so there is no evidence of her buying property.
15:59Wu denied that she filed a tax evasion complaint
16:04that was based on her transferring shares
16:07and not paying taxes.
16:11Up to 3,000 jobs in different sectors
16:14can be applied in the Czech Republic.
16:17Witness, Marie Zumal.
16:23Are you looking for a job?
16:25Maybe the Czech Republic has something for you.
16:28Up to 3,000 job opportunities
16:31are available for our countrymen in the Czech Republic.
16:34It is better if they have experience
16:36that is not less than a year
16:38in food manufacturing, transportation,
16:40construction, logistics,
16:42as well as in hospitality and support services.
17:03They can easily learn new skills.
17:06It depends on the profession.
17:08The minimum salary is 1,600 Euros per month
17:11or more than 100,000 Pesos.
17:14The bonuses are not included.
17:16Some of our countrymen are already waiting
17:18for the opening of the job fair.
17:20I need to earn money for my family.
17:23You will experience a big salary there.
17:27And of course, as a solo parent,
17:30I also need money for the future of my son.
17:33According to the Licensed Recruitment Agencies,
17:35applicants will not be able to leave
17:37because of the syncing process.
17:39The whole process will take 6 months.
17:42We are continuously working on
17:45improving the process
17:47just to make it easier, more flexible,
17:52and to shorten it as much as possible.
17:55We make it easier in the sense that
17:57they can submit their documents electronically.
17:59At least, we've mentioned to the President
18:02is to unify the OEC and the e-travel requirement
18:06so that one just needs to go through the e-gov portal.
18:10The DMW also reminded that
18:12there is no need to pay a placement fee for applying.
18:15For GMA Integrated News,
18:17I'm Maryse Umali.
18:19Succeed!
18:21The process for hiring 10,000 non-teaching staff
18:25by DepEd has already started.
18:26A group of teachers said that
18:2816,000 new teaching positions are not enough
18:32to solve the problem of teacher-student ratio.
18:36Succeed!
18:37This is Ian Cruz.
18:41Two years later,
18:42the applicant, Cecilia,
18:44will be able to return to public school.
18:46Last year,
18:47she was not selected because of the lack of certifications
18:51and the lack of skills
18:52needed for a teacher to be accepted by the Department of Education.
18:56She has already set the requirements.
18:59So, hopefully,
19:00she will be selected this year,
19:02especially that she heard that
19:0316,000 teachers will be selected by DepEd.
19:07It's good news for us,
19:09the applicants.
19:11We have high hopes
19:14that we will have a job
19:18and we will be able to enter the public school.
19:21DepEd is hoping that
19:22with the increase of teachers,
19:24the teacher-student ratio of each class
19:28will be improved
19:29so that students can learn.
19:31DepEd continues to focus on
19:33the hiring of teachers in each region
19:36so that their appointments will not be delayed.
19:40According to DepEd,
19:41as a support to the President's Directive
19:43to concentrate on the teaching of teachers,
19:46DBM has also started
19:49on Notice of Organization,
19:51Staffing,
19:52and Compensation Action
19:54for the acquisition of 10,000 admin staff of DepEd.
19:57It is easy to know
19:58if there is a lack of teachers in a school.
20:02Just look at the classes
20:04and you will see the indication
20:06that students are lacking in a school.
20:11In DepEd's schedule,
20:13one of the school brigades from June 9 to June 13,
20:16this is the year of Maintenance Week
20:18in public schools
20:20where the compensation is done
20:22to the schools and other school infrastructure.
20:26On June 16, the school opening,
20:28there will be 197 class days,
20:31the school year 2025-2026
20:34will end on March 31 of the next year.
20:37But according to the Teachers' Dignity Coalition,
20:40there are more than 100,000 students
20:42who are lacking teachers in the country.
20:44If they address the shortage,
20:46and we had 20,000 last year
20:50plus 16,000 this year,
20:52so there are still more than 60,000 teachers
20:56for us to address
20:58and give the required number of teachers.
21:04It is important for the hiring of teachers to continue.
21:06Because of the lack of teachers,
21:08the quality of education of students is at a sacrificial level
21:12while it means more work for the teachers.
21:17There are two things.
21:19Their work is increasing because they are checking the work of the students one by one,
21:23the exercises, their grades,
21:25they are doing it one by one.
21:26It is individual.
21:27And they are not focusing on the individual needs of our students
21:31in terms of learning and even behavior.
21:34GMA Integrated News is working hard
21:36to get DepEd's attention
21:38regarding the publication of TDC.
21:40For GMA Integrated News,
21:42Ian Cruz is your witness.
21:45Next week,
21:46the rerouting of vehicles and other details
21:49regarding EDSA rehabilitation is scheduled.
21:52It is possible that it will reach up to two years.
21:55Witness, Mackie Polillo.
22:00If it is just now,
22:02a person has already passed through EDSA,
22:04just imagine
22:05if this rehabilitation is already in progress
22:07in the middle of the next month.
22:09It really has a permit,
22:11but it really needs to be done.
22:13The construction is per segment and per lane.
22:16Pasay to Shaw Boulevard,
22:18Southbound and Northbound,
22:20according to DPWH.
22:21It is expected that this segment will be completed before the end of the year
22:25and the other part of EDSA will be followed.
22:27Even if there is construction,
22:29EDSA bus carousel will not be closed.
22:31Booths are still being studied
22:33while EDSA is being repaired.
22:35Even if the inner game can be fixed,
22:36the busway will remain.
22:38We will just go out to the next lane.
22:41Next week,
22:43DOTR, MMDA, and DPWH
22:45will lay out the details of EDSA rehabilitation,
22:48including the rerouting of vehicles.
22:51One of the arrangements is that
22:53Skyway can use those who avoid EDSA
22:55who do not pay tolls.
22:57And even if the lanes are reduced due to rehabilitation,
23:00they plan to build a specific lane
23:03for vehicles, motorcycles, and bicycles.
23:05There are motor vehicles
23:07against bicycles or motorcycles
23:11on lane by lane
23:13so that it will not be messy.
23:16To smoothen the travel along EDSA
23:19as we do the rehabilitation.
23:22Romnick, a truck driver, is still thinking about
23:24how to stop the traffic.
23:25His back is already aching.
23:27If you are going to pee,
23:29you should know where you are going to pee.
23:30Because that is how you run.
23:32But more than himself,
23:34he is more worried about the hardware store
23:37because their company's income may be reduced.
23:40We only have a few deliveries
23:42because one delivery is hard to return.
23:45EDSA rehabilitation may take
23:47one and a half to two years.
23:50But after that,
23:51it does not mean that the traffic in EDSA
23:53will disappear like magic.
23:56Rebuilding EDSA is not a solution to traffic.
23:59The ultimate solution is mass transportation.
24:02For GMA Integrated News,
24:04Mackie Pulido is your witness.
24:09No Contact Apprehension Policy or NCAP
24:11will be implemented by the MMDA
24:13on Monday, May 26.
24:15It includes Commonwealth Avenue, EDSA,
24:17C5, Ortigas Avenue, Ross Boulevard,
24:19and Mabuhay Lane.
24:21According to the MMDA,
24:22their CCTVs are clear
24:24and they can zoom in
24:25on vehicles that violate the traffic laws
24:27and plate numbers of the vehicles.
24:29Basically, the violations
24:32instead of being physically apprehended
24:34by our enforcers,
24:36will be apprehended by CCTV cameras.
24:39Then, we will just send the notice of violation
24:42to their registered address in the LTO.
24:46The fine is P500 to P3,000
24:48for the first offense
24:49of the 20 most common traffic violations
24:52that will be apprehended under the NCAP.
24:55Like not using a seatbelt or helmet,
24:57illegal parking,
24:58reckless driving,
24:59counter-flow,
25:00over-speeding,
25:01and more.
25:02You can contest or complain
25:03if you're not the one
25:04who was brought by the last vehicle.
25:0717 million overvotes for senators
25:10in the last election
25:11were declared invalid
25:12according to COMELEC.
25:13According to Chairman George Garcia,
25:151.3 million Filipinos
25:17overvoted.
25:18He added,
25:19any senatorial candidate
25:21who wants to question
25:22the passing of visa
25:23by voters due to overvoting
25:25can file an election protest
25:27in the Senate Electoral Tribunal.
25:29In all elections,
25:30we can't stop
25:32our fellow Filipinos
25:34from over-enthusiastic,
25:36from shading,
25:37from changing their minds,
25:38from putting an X
25:40because they changed their minds.
25:41But that's a touch move.
25:44Twenty-eight police commanders
25:46were investigated by the NCR
25:47after being subjected
25:48to a surprise inspection
25:49where no one was found
25:50in the outposts
25:51and assistance desks of the PNP.
25:53Two days ago,
25:54undercover operatives
25:55were seen
25:56from the NCR police office.
25:58They also saw
25:59policemen using cellphones
26:00while on duty.
26:02According to the PNP,
26:03this is prohibited
26:04because there's a radio
26:05that can be used
26:06for official communication.
26:07The surprise inspections
26:08will continue
26:09to make sure
26:10that the police
26:11and their officials
26:12are not harmed.
26:14For GMA Integrated News,
26:15I'm Joseph Morong.
26:16Good luck.
26:19After the midterm elections,
26:21COMELEC is preparing
26:22for the parliamentary elections
26:24of the Bangsamoro Autonomous Region
26:26and Muslim Mindanao
26:27in October.
26:28The new features
26:29of BARMM elections
26:30are also being planned.
26:32This is Sandra Aguinaldo.
26:37COMELEC is preparing
26:39for the parliamentary elections
26:41of the Bangsamoro Autonomous Region
26:43and Muslim Mindanao
26:44or BARMM
26:45that will take place
26:46on October 13
26:47or five months from now.
26:49Both machines
26:50or automated counting machines
26:51will be used in the elections
26:53but only 7,000 units
26:55for the 2.3 million voters
26:57of BARMM.
26:58That's why COMELEC
26:59is studying
27:00on how to improve
27:01the system
27:02based on the experiences
27:04of the previous elections.
27:06For example,
27:07the dismantling
27:08of more than 300 machines
27:10that was possible
27:11because of the hot weather
27:13and the repeated
27:14sweeping of the dust.
27:17Yesterday,
27:18the idea was brought up
27:19if we made a mistake
27:20in the 100 GSM
27:21or if the 100 GSM was correct.
27:23So if we did the 160 GSM
27:25just like before,
27:27what would be the change?
27:29It didn't really go black
27:31if you noticed the dust.
27:32The ball was moving.
27:34If Grado de Garcia
27:35will give the MIROS systems
27:37that supply the machines
27:39between 1 to 10...
27:41If I gave the commission
27:43of 8.5,
27:44I will give them 8.
27:46Garcia explained
27:48COMELEC will return
27:49the machines rented
27:50from MIROS
27:51and will leave
27:52the ones that will be used
27:53in BARMM.
27:54They will also implement
27:55the unique feature
27:56of parliamentary elections
27:58that follows the law.
28:00One of the features
28:02of the Bangsamoro
28:03parliamentary election
28:05is that the pictures
28:06of the candidates
28:07should be included.
28:09The logo of the political parties
28:11or the organizations
28:13should be included
28:16and none of the above features
28:18should be included
28:19so that there is an option
28:20if they really don't want to vote.
28:21We will need to change
28:23the source code.
28:25STARLINK will still be able
28:27to be used in areas
28:28where there is a weak
28:29or no internet signal,
28:30especially when it comes
28:31to its provider
28:32i.1 Resources, Inc.,
28:34to donate 8,000 units
28:37of STARLINK
28:38to the Department of Education
28:40and COMELEC.
28:41For GMA Integrated News,
28:43I'm Sandra Aguinaldo,
28:44your witness.
28:47An active 2-star general
28:48left his post
28:49and is now in the
28:50restrictive custody
28:51of the Philippine Air Force.
28:53While the investigation
28:54of the rape complaint
28:55is ongoing,
28:56two soldiers were shot
28:57at him.
28:59Our witness,
29:00Sally Marefran.
29:05The CCTV footage
29:06shows the arrival
29:07of this van
29:08at San Fernando Airbase
29:09in Lipabatangas
29:10early that day
29:11on January 29,
29:13when the two soldiers
29:14came down from the van
29:15with a 2-star general
29:16who was in need
29:17of soldiers' attention
29:18to his quarters.
29:23The next thing we see
29:24in the CCTV
29:25a few hours later
29:26are these two men
29:27who came from the quarters
29:28of the general.
29:31The two were crying
29:32so their lieutenant
29:33asked them
29:34what happened.
29:36Here, the two soldiers
29:37were told
29:38that they were
29:39being watched
29:40by the so-called general
29:42The rape complaint
29:43through sexual assault
29:44and attempted rape
29:45through sexual assault
29:46was now in progress
29:47between the two soldiers
29:48against the general
29:49who was at their request.
29:50We will not go into
29:51the details for now.
29:52Based on their testimony,
29:53they were told
29:54to sleep in the general's
29:55quarters
29:56when at first
29:57they thought
29:58that they were just
29:59joking around.
30:00This is where the
30:01incident happened.
30:02According to the general's
30:03knowledge,
30:04the video and audio
30:05were taken
30:06by one of the soldiers
30:07who is now part
30:08of their investigation.
30:09Abuse
30:10and sexual assault
30:11can happen
30:12to anyone.
30:14It can happen
30:15to women.
30:16It can happen
30:17to men.
30:18It can happen
30:19to any type
30:20of soldier.
30:21The so-called general
30:22was dismissed
30:23from his post
30:24and is in the
30:25restrictive custody
30:26of the Philippine Air Force.
30:27According to the investigation
30:28of the Office of
30:29Ethical Standards
30:30and Public Accountability
30:31of the Headquarters
30:32of the Armed Forces
30:33of the Philippines
30:34in Camp Aguinaldo,
30:35Prima Fashi
30:36obtained evidence
30:37to confront
30:38the general
30:39in the pre-trial
30:40investigation
30:41towards the
30:42dismissal
30:43of the AFP
30:44court-martial.
30:45But in his
30:46counter-affidavit,
30:47the general
30:48refused
30:49the complaints.
30:50The two soldiers
30:51did not tell the truth
30:52and this did not
30:53happen.
30:54The two soldiers
30:55are said to be
30:56strong
30:57and able
30:58to help
30:59in the night.
31:00He does not have
31:01any weapons
31:02or weapons
31:03and he does not
31:04use force,
31:05violence,
31:06or intimidation.
31:07He is not able
31:08to leave
31:09or use force
31:10to stop
31:11the so-called
31:12incidents.
31:13The two soldiers
31:14also filed
31:15complaints
31:16of rape
31:17through sexual assault
31:18and attempted
31:19rape through
31:20sexual assault
31:21in the Lipa
31:22Prosecutor's Office
31:23in Batangas.
31:24They do not have
31:25anything else
31:26to complain about
31:27but justice.
31:28They believe
31:29that no matter
31:30how high
31:31or how powerful
31:32those who
31:33abused them
31:34are,
31:35even if they are
31:36abused,
31:37at the end
31:38of the day,
31:39no matter how long
31:40the path
31:41they are walking
31:42is,
31:43the truth
31:44will come out
31:45and they will
31:46get justice.
