THE Philippine National Police (PNP) is set to submit the official medical findings of Apollo Quiboloy, the leader of the Kingdom of Jesus Christ (KOJC), to the Pasig Regional Trial Court.
This follows a motion filed by Quiboloy’s camp before the Pasig City Regional Trial Court (RTC) Branch 159, requesting hospital arrest for Quiboloy and co-accused Ingrid Canada in Davao City.
The motion could lead to delays in the legal proceedings as the court needs to assess the medical evidence and determine if hospital arrest is warranted. This could potentially postpone arraignments, hearings, and even the trial itself.
The motion has sparked concerns about potential special treatment for Quiboloy, given his high-profile status and influence. Senator Hontiveros emphasized that all accused should be treated equally under the law, regardless of their status or connections
Quiboloy and his co-accused have pleaded not guilty to the charges against them. Separately, Quiboloy faces indictment by a federal grand jury in the US District Court for the Central District of California on charges of conspiracy to engage in sex trafficking by force, fraud, and coercion, sex trafficking of children, sex trafficking by force, fraud, and coercion, conspiracy, and bulk cash smuggling.
