MANILA — Those who do not believe Shiela Guo must present proof that she is lying.  This was the statement of Shiela’s lawyer, Stephen David, amid doubts about her testimony during the August 27 Senate hearing.David is also the lawyer of dismissed Bamban, Tarlac Mayor Alice Guo.He said Shiela asked Alice where they were going on the night they left the country, but did not get a proper response.According to David, Alice supposedly told Shiela, “Ate, huwag ka na magtanong para sa kabutihan mo, huwag ka na magtanong di rin kita sasagutin.”(Sister, don’t ask anything because this is for your own good, don’t ask because I won’t answer you.)“Basically nagre-rely talaga siya doon sa kasama niya,” David added. “Naniniwala ako sa kuwento ni Shiela…Kailangan magpakita ka ng proof na hindi ganoon.”(She basically relied on her companion. I believe Shiela’s story. You have to show proof otherwise.)David also believes Shiela when she said she did not know anything about the businesses of the Guo family.As it turned out, Shiela is not a sister of Alice. She is the niece of Lin Wen Yi who is the girlfriend of Alice’s father, Jian Zhong Guo.Sheila’s Chinese name is Zhang Mier.<div>&#x27;SURPRISED&#x27; </div>David said he was surprised that Alice already left considering that she has been telling him she was still in the Philippines.“Siyempre na-surprise ako kasi all my belief na nandito siya, di ba?” David said. “Gusto ko talaga siyang makausap to confront her about this…Pero I&#x27;m giving her the benefit of the doubt.”(Of course I was surprised because I believed she was here. I really want to confront her about this but I’m giving her the benefit of the doubt.)“Being a human being that she is, I also have to understand na she&#x27;s coming from a lot of pressure.”David last talked to Alice on August 22. That was when she supposedly told him that she already wanted to surrender. They have not talked since.David, meanwhile, talked to Alice’s brother, Wesley, on Thursday.“Concerned siya kay Sheila. Sabi niya, huwag ko raw pabayaaan. Tapos, gusto niya i-update ko siya kay Sheila. Pangalawa, hinahanap niya yung ate niya… si Alice,” David said.(He is concerned about Sheila. He told me to take care of her. He also wants updates on her. Secondly, he was looking for his older sister, Alice.)David said he also does not know where Wesley is.According to authorities, Wesley tried to enter Hong Kong, while Alice is believed to be in Jakarta, Indonesia.<div><a href="https://news.abs-cbn.com/news/2024/8/29/gatchalian-sees-gaps-in-shiela-guo-s-senate-testimony-1553">Gatchalian sees &#x27;gaps&#x27; in Shiela Guo’s Senate testimony</a></div>
