MANILA: The Philippine National Police (PNP) continues its protracted game of hide-and-seek as it hunts for fugitive preacher Apollo Quiboloy, who is accused of trafficking and sexually abusing women and girls as young as 12.

The police believe Quiboloy, the 74-year-old self-proclaimed ‘appointed son of God,’ is hiding in a bunker along with four of his co-accused associates somewhere underneath the sprawling 30-ha compound of his church, the Kingdom of Jesus Christ (KOJC), in the southern Philippine city of Davao.
