The DOJ says Arnie Teves' release and subsequent rearrest 'should not be taken as hindrance to the process but simply a part of it'

This is AI generated summarization, which may have errors. For context, always refer to the full article.

What happened, according to DOJ spokesperson Mico Clavano, was a procedural release after which Teves was immediately taken into custody by the local police “to continue to stand trial for his anticipated extradition.” The Philippines and Timor-Leste have no extradition treaty, making the latter the logical choice for a fugitive. An Interpol red notice alert is also not an international arrest warrant, but member countries such as Philippines and Timor-Leste are obliged to cooperate.
