MANILA — The Philippine National Police (PNP) has warned that anyone found harboring former presidential spokesman Harry Roque will face charges of obstruction of justice.
“If anyone is found to be shielding Roque, we will pursue charges of obstruction of justice if we can prove it,” said Lt. Col. Imelda Reyes, spokesperson for the PNP Criminal Investigation and Detection Group (CIDG).
Reyes also mentioned that the CIDG is following leads in their manhunt for Roque, who has been in hiding since being cited for contempt by the House of Representatives.
The House Quad Committee has cited Roque for contempt again and ordered his detention for failing to submit documents subpoenaed by the joint panel investigating his potential links to illegal Philippine Offshore Gaming Operators (POGOs).
