[]

The United States has requested the Philippines extradite a Filipino church leader who is on the FBI’s most wanted list to stand trial for child sex trafficking and fraud.
Quiboloy was arrested in 2024 on charges of child and sexual abuse as well as human trafficking.
The Philippine Senate separately ordered Quiboloy’s arrest at the time for refusing to appear in public hearings about his alleged crimes.
Criminal suspects in the Philippines must finish their trials and serve their sentences if convicted prior to extradition.
It contained a series of charges, including conspiracy, sex trafficking of children, sex trafficking by force, fraud and coercion, marriage fraud, money laundering, cash smuggling and visa fraud.
