MANILA — Sen. Ronald Dela Rosa on Wednesday believed both the Philippine National Police and members of the Kingdom of Jesus Christ (KOJC) did acts they should not have done in their stand-off prior to the arrest of Pastor Apollo Quiboloy.

"Meron both sides, merong kwan, may mga hindi karapat dapat na gawin pero yung sa pulis yung kanilang extended service of warrant na umabot ng 14 days. Conducting search without search warrant ay nakikita natin yun ay mga mayroon silang mga nagawang paglabag," Dela Rosa said in a press conference.

Dela Rosa is chairperson of the Senate Justice and Human Rights subcommittee tasked to investigate the incident.

"I have to be fair and balanced sa aking investigation. Mahal ko yung PNP, sa kabila naman I am a Davaoeño at mahal ko rin yung mga Davaoeño o yung mga members ng KOJC," he said.

"So kailangan kung may nakita akong mali in the course of my investigation natural sisitahin ko sila at kung may nakita akong mali rin na ginawa ng  mga members ng KOJC natural sinita ko rin sila," Dela Rosa added.

Dela Rosa said that Committee Chairman Senate Minority Leader Aquilino Pimentel III is eyeing remedial legislation because the incident may have involved substantive rights instead of just mere procedures.

Dela Rosa said he is not yet sure if he will conduct another hearing since Quiboloy is now in government custody.
