"The narrative that I have an interest in the property of POGO being used for human trafficking, and therefore can be held accountable, is baseless," Guo said.
"Property owners are expected to conduct appropriate investigations and take reasonable steps to prevent the use of their properties for illegal activities. This does not apply to me as I am not the owner of the property," she added.
The Mayor also addressed accusations of kidnapping and illegal detention, claiming the charges are entirely "absent" due to her limited role in approving permits.
Guo went further, denying involvement in money laundering activities, stating, "There is no evidence supporting the allegations of my participation."
The statement also addressed conspiracy theories surrounding her motivations for running for Mayor and divesting from Baofu Land Development Inc., the company that owned the raided POGO facility.
"My decision to run for Mayor was driven by a genuine desire to improve the lives of our fellow citizens," Guo said.
She called the allegations regarding her divestment "bogus" and reiterated that she "fully and legally cut ties with the company before" being elected.
Guo also denied accusations that Baofu Land Development Inc. was established for illegal purposes.
"The company was established under Philippine laws," she said.
