News summary

Approximately 2,000 members of the Philippine National Police raided the Kingdom of Jesus Christ (KOJC) compound in Davao City to serve an arrest warrant against televangelist Apollo Quiboloy, who faces charges of child abuse and human trafficking. The operation began early Saturday morning, with police giving the compound's administrators 30 minutes to open the gates before entering. Despite extensive searches using specialized equipment, police did not find Quiboloy, who has been in hiding since February, and his followers protested the legality of the raid. During the operation, a male KOJC member reportedly died from a heart attack, although police stated this was unrelated to the raid. Police Brig. Gen. Nicolas Torre III justified the large deployment due to the compound's extensive size, which includes multiple buildings and facilities. Quiboloy and his supporters continue to deny the allegations against him, claiming they are fabricated by critics.
