Quiboloy camp going to SC

The camp of Kingdom of Jesus Christ founder Apollo Quiboloy vowed to question the legality of the arrest warrant against the KOJC pastor before the Supreme Court.

Mark Tolentino, one of the legal counsels of Quiboloy also expressed optimism that the Senate, with the help of senators led by Robinhood Padilla, will not allow the arrest of Quiboloy.

Senators Padilla, Cynthia Villar, Imee Marcos, Bong Go, and JV Ejercito have signed a written manifestation objecting to the arrest of Quiboloy.

"We can also question this (arrest warrant) before the Supreme Court as it is not within the power of the Senate as a pending case was already filed by the Department of Justice (DOJ)," Tolentino said.

At least eight signatures are needed to block the issuance of an arrest warrant against the KOJC leader.

During the Senate women and gender committee's fourth hearing, Sen. Risa Hontiveros cited Quiboloy in contempt and asked Senate President Juan Miguel Zubiri to order his arrest.
