A former Philippine National Police (PNP) chief allegedly helped dismissed Bamban, Tarlac Mayor Alice Guo leave the country, despite a hold departure order issued against her.
That’s according to PAGCOR official Raul Villanueva, as he answered a question from senator Risa Hontiveros during a Senate probe on illegal Philippine Offshore Gaming Operators (POGO).
Hontiveros asked Villanueva about the possibility of government officials who may have helped Guo escape in exchange for a huge sum.
“May pinag-uusapan na ‘yung sa border immigration, di ko lang alam yung exact amount, inlcuding PNP official pero hindi ko pa din confirmed yun,” Villanueva said.
Hontiveros then asked, “alin pong PNP units ang binabanggit sa usapan?”
Matapos ang naging pagtatanong ni Senator Risa Hontiveros hinggil sa posibleng kaugnayan ng isang umano’y dating Chief PNP, inaalam na raw ng mga ahensya kung may ibinigay na suhol at monthly payroll sa nabanggit na umano’y dating Chief PNP para makalabas ng bansa si Alice Guo. pic.twitter.com/mfycEM1b9n

“Hindi PNP po unit ma’am eh, but personalities… I think it was mentioned, a former Chief PNP,” said Villanueva.
When asked who it was, the PAGCOR official said “I don’t know ma’am.”
Villanueva also said that some high-ranking immigration official may have also been involved, according to intel report.
“May mga usap-usapan within inteligence community, pero wala pa pong confirmation kung may witnesses na meron talaga nabigyan. Pero ‘yun po ang usap-sapan. They’re still validating it,” he said. —VAL, GMA Integrated News
