MANILA, Philippines — Supporters of fugitive Pastor Apollo Quiboloy are fighting back and they are allegedly using lasers against police helicopters that are flying over the compound, the Philippine National Police said. In a video posted on Facebook Thursday evening, Police Regional Office (PRO) 11 spokesman, Police Maj. Catherine dela Rey, said the moves of the KOJC members were “dangerous.”
The helicopters were being used by the PNP as a part of their search for Quiboloy who has been suspected of seeking refuge inside his own church and using his members as his shield.
“The PNP strongly condemned the recent actions of KOJC members who have been using laser devices against PNP helicopters,” Dela Rey said.
“Such behavior is a direct threat to the safety and operational effectiveness of our law enforcement aviation units. The use of lasers against aircraft is not only dangerous but also a clear violation of aviation safety regulations and legal standards,” she said.
