Fingerprints match; Guo Hua Ping is Mayor Guo

MANILA, Philippines — The fingerprints of suspended Mayor Alice Guo of Bamban, Tarlac and Chinese national Guo Hua Ping are identical, establishing that they are the same person, the National Bureau of Investigation (NBI) declared in its dactyloscopy report.

The report was released yesterday after a comparative examination and analysis by the NBI Organized and Transnational Crime Division.

“This is the biggest evidence we can have to oust ‘Mayor Alice’ from her position.”

Hontiveros thanked new NBI Director Jaime Santiago for their quick action in comparing the two fingerprints, as she called on the Office of the Solicitor General to expedite the filing of a quo warranto case against the mayor.

Senators earlier revealed that Guo may have stolen a Filipino person’s identity after another person under the name Alice Leal Guo with the same birthday and birthplace was registered in the NBI clearance system.

Documents presented by Sen. Sherwin Gatchalian indicated that Guo entered the Philippines as a teenager using a passport under the name Guo Hua Ping, identifying her
