MANILA — President Ferdinand “Bongbong” Marcos Jr. announced that all individuals implicated in assisting the escape of dismissed Bamban Mayor Alice Guo will be removed from their positions, with the government planning to file charges against them.

“Ang tanong ninyo  sino ang sisibakin. Hindi lang namin sila sisibakin, kakasuhan pa namin sila dahil ang kanilang ginawa ay labag sa batas at against all the interest of the Filipino,” Marcos stated.

The President has not yet disclosed the identities or the number of individuals involved in Guo’s escape.

“You’ll find out soon enough,” he added.

Marcos also mentioned that the government is currently arranging Guo’s return to the country.

The National Bureau of Investigation (NBI) confirmed that Guo will be sent back to the Philippines “the soonest.”
