MANILA, Philippines — The United States government has asked a court in Makati City to extradite detained pastor Apollo Quiboloy and two others so they can face various charges against them.
“The request of the government of the United States of America for the extradition of Apollo Carreon Quiboloy, Teresita Tolibas Dandan and Helen Panilag was filed on 09 November 2026 before the Regional Trial Court of Makati,” according to a press statement issued by the Department of Justice (DOJ) last night.
The request was “raffled to Branch 145 presided by Honorable Judge Karen Matti Sy,” the DOJ added.
It noted the US government sought “their extradition to pursue prosecution for the foregoing offenses,” namely international human trafficking, sex trafficking, conspiracy and bulk cash smuggling, based on arrest warrants issued against them.
Quiboloy surrendered to Philippine authorities in Davao City on Sept. 9, 2024.
