Alice Guo may limit Senate testimony over pending cases

Alice Guo's lawyer, Stephen David, stated that she might limit her testimony at the Senate hearing on illegal Philippine Offshore Gaming Operators (POGOs) due to pending criminal cases, including allegations of money laundering and human trafficking.

David advised Guo to speak truthfully while also informing her of her constitutional right against self-incrimination, as anything she says could be used against her in court.

He emphasized that he will not force Guo to answer questions if she chooses not to, to avoid her incriminating herself.

Guo was also reported to have experienced a stomach ache after drinking tap water at the custodial center, though she felt better by Sunday afternoon.
