MANILA, Philippines — Former president Rodrigo Duterte said he knows where his friend Kingdom of Jesus Christ (KOJC) leader Apollo Quiboloy is hiding, but would not say where.
“If the question is, ‘Where is pastor?’ I know where, but it’s a secret,” Duterte told reporters yesterday in Tacloban city.
Duterte, administrator of KOJC properties, said Quiboloy, who has standing arrest warrants for sexual and child abuse and human trafficking cases, does not want to surrender.
“He does not want to surrender. So, don’t surrender,” he added.
The police searched the KOJC compound several times in an attempt to serve the arrest warrants against Quiboloy and his co-accused but failed to find him. KOJC members have condemned the latest attempt to serve the warrants, claiming that the police have used excessive force in entering their compounds.
Duterte, however, refused to comment on this allegation.
“I have a feeling for the military and police. I am pro-police, pro-military,” the former president added.
