Alice Guo may have an escape plan to China, Gatchalian says
Senator Sherwin Gatchalian suspects suspended Bamban Mayor Alice Guo might use her active Chinese passport to flee the Philippines.
Gatchalian theorizes that Guo's Chinese passport, reportedly used until 2011, remains valid and could serve as an escape route to China.
He believes Guo, being intelligent and not an ordinary person, likely has an escape plan and is holding onto her Chinese passport as insurance.
The senator has asked the Bureau of Immigration to check if Alice Guo or Guo Hua Ping has departed the country, with current records indicating she is still in the Philippines.
Guo is under Senate investigation for her alleged involvement in a POGO hub in Bamban, Tarlac, and her citizenship has been questioned due to inconsistent testimonies and questionable documents.
She denies involvement in POGO operations and asserts her Filipino citizenship.
