Alice Guo faces House quad comm probe into illegal Pogo activities
Dismissed Bamban Mayor Alice Guo faced the House of Representatives quad-committee for the first time due to her alleged ties to a raided Philippine Offshore Gaming Operator in her town.
Guo appeared before the House quad-committee on Thursday, Sept. 19, as the panel resumed its investigation into the proliferation of criminal activities and unlawful acts linked to Pogos.
The specimen signature of ex-Bamban mayor Alice Guo (real name: Guo Hua Ping) did not match the signature in the counter-affidavit notarized by Atty. Elmer Galicia, according to National Bureau of Investigation Director Jaime Santiago.
鈥淣ot written by one and the same person,鈥� he said in a Viber message sent to 黑料社 when asked if Guo鈥檚 signature matched the one on the counter-affidavit.
Senators were no longer surprised upon discovering the signature mismatch on Alice Guo鈥檚 counter-affidavit, noting that the dismissed Bamban mayor is a 鈥減rofessional scam artist.鈥�
One of these two senators who aired their sentiments on the issue was Sen. Risa Hontiveros, head of the chamber鈥檚 panel on women investigating Guo鈥檚 Philippine offshore gaming operator ties.
