NOW that the controversial Kingdom of Jesus Christ (KOJC) founder Pastor Apollo Quiboloy has emerged in the Intelligence Service of the Armed Forces (ISAFP), the big question is who will receive the P10 million reward for his capture?
The reward was offered by Quiboloy’s ‘friends’ back in July for any information leading to his arrest, according to a statement by Interior and Local Government (DILG) Secretary Benhur Abalos.
Aside from Quiboloy’s arrest, a reward of P1 million was also offered for information leading to the arrest of his co-accused.
Members of the Philippine National Police (PNP) first surrounded Quiboloy’s alleged stronghold in Davao City.
The hectares of land owned by KOJC have been searched since August 24, but neither Quiboloy nor his trustees were found.
Quiboloy, along with his co-accused, was surprised by ISAFP personnel on a Sunday night.
It was even said that Quiboloy trusts soldiers more than the police who barricaded and searched the KOJC compound.
According to AFP spokesperson Colonel Francel Margareth Padilla, the AFP fully supports the PNP in locating Quiboloy’s troops who are facing multiple charges.
On his part, Abalos stated that regardless of whom Quiboloy surrenders to, it is the police who have been working and should be acknowledged.
PNP Police Region Office 11 Director P/Bgen. Nicolas Torre III said that the alleged surrender is just a formality since Quiboloy is already surrounded and did not surrender elsewhere but within the KOJC Compound.
Whatever the outcome of who should receive the reward, the important thing is that Quiboloy has been captured.
The pursuit of justice for his victims and the sect has now begun.
May the trial be successful in putting an end to the ‘evil’ that they have inflicted on innocent individuals who are members of the congregation.
