Bamban Mayor Alice Guo could be charged with perjury if she misdeclared herself as a Filipino citizen, Commission on Elections chairperson George Garcia said on Monday.In an ambush interview right after a Senate hearing, Garcia was asked about the possibility that Guo presented fake documents that allowed her to run as mayor of the Tarlac municipality in the 2022 elections.
Garcia said the poll body presumes the declaration of aspiring candidates is true until a disqualification or cancellation of candidacy case is filed by a registered voter.Senator Risa Hontiveros earlier questioned Guo's identity, saying the mayor had no official records to prove she was a Filipino, and went as far as to ask whether the official was a Chinese citizen.
