A Philippines celebrity preacher, who calls himself the “anointed son of God”, has pleaded not guilty to charges of sex abuse of children and human trafficking, his lawyer said.
Apollo Quiboloy, 74, a close ally of former President Rodrigo Duterte, was arrested last Sunday on multiple charges, after a weeks-long search of his church’s sprawling 30-hectare (74-acre) compound by more than 2,000 security personnel in the southern city of Davao.
