Israelito Torreon, Quiboloy's counsel, said the leader of the Kingdom of Jesus Christ (KOJC) will be brought back to the Philippine Heart Center (PHC) in Quezon City today at around 8 a.m. and will stay in the hospital until Wednesday.

"It was approved until Wednesday. Discussions were high, but the request was approved anyway," he told reporters in an interview after a hearing on the religious leader's cases at the Pasig City Regional Trial Court Branch 159.

Torreon refused to disclose in detail the medical procedure Quiboloy will undergo, but before the hearing yesterday, he said in an interview over ABS-CBN that the medical furlough is for an infection from the pastor's dental implants, as well as for other medical tests.

Quiboloy is facing a qualified human trafficking case before the Pasig RTC, a non-bailable offense. He is also charged with child abuse at a Quezon City court.

The Philippine National Police (PNP), for its part, has yet to issue a statement on Quiboloy's latest medical furlough.
