Former President Rodrigo Duterte is among those who allegedly benefited from the female victims of Pastor Apollo Quiboloy within his religious group, the Kingdom of Jesus Christ (KOJC), according to former KOJC member Arlene Stone.
In an exclusive interview on Dos Por Dos on Thursday, Stone revealed that Quiboloy shared certain women, referred to as "Pastorals," with his close friends, including the former president.
"Itong information na ito na inaalok sa mga very close friends lang ni Quiboloy, like for example dating pangulong Duterte, inaalukan kung meron silang magugustuhan na isa sa mga pastoral ay binibigay ni Quiboloy at sa mga iba na close in friends ni Quiboloy na nasa kapangyarihan," said Stone.
When asked if there was a victim who testified about the matter, Stone confirmed that a victim had alleged she was "passed" to former President Duterte. According to her, the victim is still inside the KOJC compound in Davao.
Stone explained that these Pastorals serve Quiboloy's guests inside the compound, allowing visitors to choose a woman for "trafficking."
"Sinabi ni Quiboloy na kung ano 'yung blessing na nasa kanya ay shineshare niya kay Duterte, sakanya galing 'yan," Stone noted.
"Regardless what it is, shineshare niya kay Duterte," she added.
Stone also called for these Pastorals to be invited to the next Senate hearing to present their accusations and potentially protect Quiboloy.
"Panawagan natin na sana itong mga totoong pastoral ay sana maimbitahan sa Senado sa susunod na hearing para naman maipresent nila itong mga accusation na ito at maprotektahan nila si Quiboloy," she said.
According to Stone, nearly 200 victims have testified against the KOJC.
It can be recalled that Quiboloy was appointed as the spiritual adviser to Duterte during his presidency.
Quiboloy is currently detained at the Philippine National Police (PNP) Custodial Center in Camp Crame, Quezon City, facing charges of human trafficking and child exploitation, to which he has pleaded not guilty.
The self-proclaimed "appointed son of God" is also facing indictment in the U.S. on conspiracy and sex trafficking charges, though his camp continues to deny all allegations.
