MANILA, Philippines — A religious group leader, who is facing sex trafficking charges, has accused the United States (US) of persecution.

He also said all allegations against him are false.

‘Kingdom of Jesus Christ’ founder Apollo Quiboloy made these moves a day after his YouTube channel was terminated for violating the social media platform’s community guidelines.

He is in the US Federal Bureau of Investigation’s Most Wanted list because he had been indicted for sex trafficking of children.

“Nothing new. Pareho pa rin ng mga issues,” Quiboloy said in an interview over SMNI television network, the media arm of his organization.

(The issues are still the same.)

“Gusto ng bansang Amerika na sila lang ang maghari sa sanlibutan,” he said.

(America wants it to be the only one to rule the world.)

“Hindi tayo malaya. Pinakikialaman tayo sa bansa natin,” Quiboloy went on.

(We are not free. They are meddling in our affairs.)

“Itong ginagawa sa akin is both political and religious persecution,” he said.

(What is being done to me is both political and religious persecution.)

“Lahat ng akusasyong ginawa, fabricated. Lahat, pinatong sa ulo ko. Tapos pinaangkin sa akin,” he lamented.

(All accusations made were fabricated. All were placed on my head. I was made to own up to them.)

According to Quiboloy, the oppression he is experiencing is only “emboldening” him and “fueling his fire.”

He said US cannot take him down.

“Sa mga gustong tumira sa ‘kin, lahat kayo, pati bansang Amerika, sumawsaw na kayo lahat,” he dared his enemies.

(To those who want to hit, all of you, including the country of America. You can all join in this.)

“Ilabas na ninyo lahat ng bala nyo sa ‘kin. Gusto ko lang ipaalam sa inyo, bullet-proof ako!” Quiboloy claimed.

(Show all your bullets against me. I want to let you know, I’m bullet-proof!)

“Hindi ako tinatablan ng anumang mga bagay na ginagawa ninyo,” he added.

(I’m immune to anything you are doing.)

The respondent is a self-proclaimed son of god.

He had been previously linked to various scandals.

These controversies included the 2008 murder of tribal leader Datu Dominador Diarog in Davao City.

He was also the spiritual adviser of former President Rodrigo Duterte.
