At a press briefing at Camp Crame, Torre said the surrender was “a formality” as government forces already had Quiboloy cornered at the ACQ College of Ministry, a bible school within the KOJC compound.
“Whether he liked it or not, the end result was the same. He had no other options,” Torre said.
The Philippine National Police (PNP) had set an assault deadline of 1 p.m. on Sunday, but it was extended to 3 p.m. to give way to negotiations.
Torre said the delay was partly due to Bar exams being held nearby.
Quiboloy’s camp had been sending surrender feelers as early as 10 a.m. as KOJC members were beginning to realize they were surrounded.
