Quiboloy surrenders in Davao after months on the run

Fugitive pastor Apollo Quiboloy surrendered in Davao City on Sunday, September 8 after months of evasion.

Quiboloy is currently adjusting to his stay at the Philippine National Police custodial facility inside Camp Crame more than a day after his surrender, according to police spokesperson PCOL Jean Fajardo.

The pastor faces charges including child abuse, sexual abuse, and human trafficking both in the Philippines and potentially in the United States.

A reward of P10 million was offered by friends for information leading to Quiboloy's arrest, with an additional P1 million for each of his co-accused.

Interior and Local Government Secretary Benhur Abalos announced the arrest on Sunday and shared a photo of Quiboloy with his lawyer Israelito Torreon.

Eastern Mindanao Commander Lieutenant General Luis Bergante confirmed that Quiboloy surrendered to the Intelligence Service of the Armed Forces of the Philippines (ISAFP) at 6 p.m. inside the Kingdom of Jesus Christ compound.
