Manila, Philippines — President Ferdinand Marcos Jr. described as “immaterial” all of the conditions set by alleged sex-offender Apollo Quiboloy before he faces the criminal charges filed against him.

The president made the pronouncement after Quiboloy previously said he would face the cases provided that government issued a written declaration that he would not be “extraordinarily rendered” to the United States.

“All of these conditions that he is putting in are immaterial,” Marcos said in a chance interview.

He spoke about the matter while conducting an aerial inspection of Metro Manila to determine the effects of severe storm Enteng and the southwest monsoon.

According to Marcos, Quiboloy does not seem to understand the process of his arrest, stating that it is the court that should hear what he wants to say.

“Parang hindi nya yata masyadong naintindihan ang proseso na pagka nag-issue ang korte ng bench warrant… ng warrant of arrest… eh, it is out of our hands already. It is in the court’s hands,” Marcos said.

(It seems like he didn’t quite understand the process that when the court issues a bench warrant… a warrant of arrest… then, it is out of our hands already. It is in the court’s hands.)

“Kailangan ang kausap nya, ang korte, dahil ang executive na lang… ang papel na lang namin ngayon ay arestuhin siya,” he explained.

(He needs to talk to the court because the executive… the only role of the executive now is to arrest him.)

Quiboloy is charged with child abuse cases before a Davao City court.

He also has an arrest warrant for human trafficking issued by a Pasig City court.

On top of these cases, Quiboloy is also facing several criminal charges in the US.
