Philippines Pastor Apollo Quiboloy Faces New Abuse Allegations

Philippine police have reported a surge in allegations of sexual abuse against celebrity pastor Apollo Quiboloy, who is already facing numerous charges including sex trafficking and child abuse in both the Philippines and the United States. Following his arrest, police chief General Francisco Marbil noted that many victims, including girls as young as 12, have come forward, revealing a disturbing pattern of manipulation and exploitation. Quiboloy, who has built a powerful image and amassed significant wealth, has denied all wrongdoing and remains on the FBI's most wanted list. Police are currently verifying the information provided by the victims to strengthen their cases against him. The justice ministry has acknowledged its extradition treaty with the U.S. but stated Quiboloy must first face trial in the Philippines. Marbil has urged other victims to come forward, assuring them of protection as the investigation continues.
