00:00 The court in the East Timor ordered the former congressman Arnie Tevez to be house arrested while he was hearing his extradition case.
00:09 Salimari Fran was there.
00:11 Former congressman Arnie Tevez is wearing an American and not in a detention uniform when he faced the court in the East Timor.
00:22 He is no longer in police detention after the court in the East Timor allowed him to be house arrested while he was hearing his extradition case.
00:32 According to the translated documents provided by Timorese News website,
00:37 the Court of Appeals of the East Timor said that Tevez is living in a rented house with his wife and children
00:45 and earns a dollar equivalent to almost P900,000 per month as a partner in construction.
00:52 But the court ordered that Tevez has economic capacity to leave the East Timor.
00:59 Now, he will be forced by their law to stay in the house.
01:04 That's why the court ordered the house arrest while he was hearing his extradition case.
01:10 If you look at it, people are not dangerous and there are no crimes committed here in the East Timor.
01:16 He should not be placed in a place that is totally deprived of liberty.
01:21 But the authorities are still watching him even though he's in his own detention.
01:26 He still has no freedom under the jurisdiction of Justice Undersecretary Raul Vasquez.
01:31 According to the separate statement of the Justice Department,
01:34 Tevez is under 24-hour security and only family members can visit him.
01:40 In addition, the authorities will continue to monitor him so that the entire process is done properly.
