Shiela Guo transferred to NBI custody due to security concerns

Shiela Guo, sister of dismissed Bamban, Tarlac Mayor Alice Guo, was transferred to NBI custody on Tuesday due to security concerns as stated by BI spokesperson Dana Sandoval.

Sandoval explained that placing Shiela Guo under NBI custody is part of joint operations with the NBI and BI, emphasizing safety issues.

Despite being in NBI custody, legal custody remains with the BI as Shiela Guo faces a deportation case for misrepresentation and undesirability.

Shiela Guo was processed at the NBI headquarters and transferred to the NBI detention facility in Bilibid compound in Muntinlupa.

Guo is facing charges for disobeying a summons by the Senate and using a fake Philippine passport, as well as being a respondent in a money laundering complaint filed against Alice Guo.

The Senate had previously cited Shiela Guo in contempt and ordered her arrest in July, leading to her arrest alongside Cassandra Li Ong in Indonesia on August 22.
