Apollo Quiboloy is a famous church leader. Police in the Philippines arrest him. Quiboloy gives himself up after police search his large home and land for two weeks.

Both US and Philippine authorities want him. He and four other people will go to court for child abuse and human trafficking. But the Philippines does not want to send him to the US now.

Quiboloy is the leader of the Kingdom of Jesus Christ church. He has 7 million followers. He is also close to ex-president Duterte. He is his spiritual help. He makes him very strong. Police believe that Quiboloy brings children to beg for money in the US. He keeps the money for himself.

Difficult words: give up (to stop trying; to go to the police when they are looking for you), human trafficking (buying and selling people illegally), child abuse (doing bad things to children).

You can watch the original video in the Level 3 section.
