Rey Cortez, lawyer of the Veloso family, maintained that Veloso is in a different situation because she is currently detained in Indonesia.<\/p>\n<p>It was learned that Veloso executed her sworn-affidavit before the Philippine consul in Indonesia.<\/p>\n<p>In the end, Assistant State Prosecutor Susan Azarcon said that she should be allowed to make the decision on the sworn-statement of Veloso herself.<\/p>\n<p>Meanwhile, the submission by Michael Candelaria, husband of Veloso, of his sworn-statement before the DOJ pushed through on Monday after he presented a Philippine passport to prove his identity.<\/p>\n<p>According to the National Bureau of Investigation-Anti Human Trafficking Division (NBI-AHTRAD), the case they filed against Sergio and Lacanilao will be given more weight because Candelaria has direct knowledge about the recruitment of Veloso.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>MANILA &#8212; The camp of Kristina Sergio and Julius Lacanilao on Monday tried to block the receipt by the Department &hellip;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":44,"featured_media":49000,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[95],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-48946","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-news-ph","mauthors-philippines-news-agency"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/canadianinquirer.net\/v1\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/48946","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/canadianinquirer.net\/v1\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/canadianinquirer.net\/v1\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/canadianinquirer.net\/v1\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/44"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/canadianinquirer.net\/v1\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=48946"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/canadianinquirer.net\/v1\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/48946\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/canadianinquirer.net\/v1\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/49000"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/canadianinquirer.net\/v1\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=48946"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/canadianinquirer.net\/v1\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=48946"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/canadianinquirer.net\/v1\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=48946"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
