An unspecified number of informants will receive the P14 million reward for providing information that led to the arrest of Kingdom of Jesus Christ Pastor Apollo Quiboloy and four others, the Philippine National Police said.

PNP spokesperson Col. Jean Fajardo confirmed that P10 million has been set aside for Quiboloy’s arrest, with an additional P1 million each for the pastor’s associates, Jackielyn Roy, Ingrid Canada, Cresente Canada, and Sylvia Cemañes.

“We cannot really reveal who and how many they are because their lives are under threat. So, it will still be discussed who will be entitled to the reward,” she said.

Asked if the informants are KOJC members, Fajardo said: “I cannot confirm that.”

Fajardo said Quiboloy and his four co-accused will remain at the PNP Custodial Center in Camp Crame despite a court order for their immediate transfer to the Quezon City Jail.

Fajardo said a Pasig RTC issued a separate order directing for Quiboloy and his followers to remain at the PNP Custodial Center.

“Their case in Pasig is non-bailable,” Fajardo said.

“We don’t want to run the risk of transferring them there to QC and they post bail and the PNP would lose control. We just have to really harmonize these court orders,” she added.

The KOJC founder and his four cohorts are facing non-bailable qualified human trafficking charges before the Pasig RTC Branch 159.

Meanwhile, the Department of National Defense on Tuesday submitted a motion to oppose Quiboloy’s request to transfer his custody from the police to the military.

The DND motion was filed before the Pasig RTC by Defense Assistant Secretary Eric Dy, who noted that Quiboloy and his companions were facing heinous crimes under a civilian court.

“It is only appropriate that custody of the accused remain with our law enforcement agencies and not with the military. Our AFP detention facilities are for military officers or personnel charged or convicted on service-related offenses under the jurisdiction of the general court martials,” Dy said.

Meanwhile, more lawmakers expressed their belief that ex-President Rodrigo Duterte can be held criminally liable for harboring Quiboloy, a fugitive, from the law, as the former was the administrator of the latter’s estate, including the KOJC compound in Davao City.

Tingog Rep. Jude Acidre said Vice President Sara Duterte, Senator Ronald Dela Rosa and others may also be held liable for obstruction of justice after apparently misleading arresting officers as to the whereabouts of Quiboloy.

Taguig Rep. Pammy Zamora, a House Assistant Majority Leader, said the former president should take these allegations seriously, as his close ties with Quiboloy are now under strict scrutiny.

“We just want to clarify what role the former President could have played. In fact, this gives the former President the proper forum to enlighten us on the intricacies of his relationship to Mr. Quiboloy,” Zamora said.

“Similarly, we want to know why VP Sara and Senator dela Rosa claimed he was not in Davao City. However, it was later revealed that he was still within the KOJC compound,” Zamora added.
