'Huwag na mag-astang Diyos': Hontiveros blasts Quiboloy's request for hospital arrest in Davao City
Senator Risa Hontiveros criticized the motion of Apollo Quiboloy's camp seeking hospital arrest in Davao City.
Hontiveros stated that Quiboloy faces serious charges including human trafficking, rape, and child abuse, and emphasized equal treatment for all accused regardless of status.
Government prosecutors opposed Quiboloy's request for house arrest or hospital confinement during his arraignment at the Pasig City Regional Trial Court (RTC) Branch 139.
Quiboloy will remain detained at the Philippine National Police (PNP) Custodial Center in Camp Crame, Quezon City.
Hontiveros questioned Quiboloy's request for hospital arrest in Davao, suggesting it was out of place and showed entitlement due to potential influential friends there.
She also stated that Quiboloy has no right to choose his place of detention and should not act like a god since he is no longer in his 'King Dome'.
Quiboloy pleaded not guilty to criminal charges of child sexual abuse and qualified trafficking in persons during separate arraignments at the Quezon City and Pasig City RTCs.
