DOJ junks coup raps vs Gringo;Affirms charges vs Trillanes

Update:Clearing Gringo dismays prosecutors

by Evangeline de Vera

Justice Secretary Raul Gonzalez today exonerated Sen.-elect Gregorio “Gringo” Honasan from all criminal culpability in connection with the 2003 Oakwood mutiny, reversing the finding of probable cause by a panel of Department of Justice prosecutors.

In a 19-page resolution on the petition for review filed by Honasan, Gonzalez said there was insufficient evidence to back the criminal information against Honasan before the Makati regional trial court.

Gonzalez, however, reaffirmed coup d’état charges against Sen.-elect Antonio Trillanes IV and other members of the so-called Magdalo group that staged the mutiny.

He said the charges against Trillanes cannot be set aside because there is “sufficient evidence that covert acts were committed during the Oakwood mutiny incident.”

Aside from the charges before Makati RTC, Trillanes is also facing a general court martial for violation of Articles of War on unbecoming conduct.

Trillanes was a naval officer when he and five other core leaders from the Magdalo group led some 300 officers and men into staging the Oakwood mutiny in 2003.

Gonzalez said that in Honasan’s case, the complainant, which is the PNP’s Criminal Investigation and Detection Group of the PNP, failed to establish Honasan’s alleged involvement in the failed coup as instigator or playing a leading role in the Oakwood incident.

Gonzalez gave merit to Honasan’s affidavit which said he went to the hotel with Sen. Rodolfo Biazon, then Sen. Tito Sotto and then Environment Secretary Michael Defensor to persuade the mutineers to calm down.

Even the advocacy for the use of arms and violent means to achieve the ends of his National Recovery Program (NRP) is covered by petitioner’s freedom of speech, according to Gonzalez.

Honasan’s NRP, according to the military, would be the implementing plan once the Arroyo government is overthrown and a junta established.

Gonzalez acknowledged that the DOJ resolution on Honasan’s case will be perceived to have political undertones.

“We have to be prepared to defend it on its face,” he said.

When Honasan was granted bail to enable him to campaign as an independent, there was talk of Palace “accommodation” to bring him to the pro-Arroyo side.

Executive Secretary Eduardo Ermita said Malacañang supports Gonzalez’ decision.

Press Secretary Ignacio Bunye belied talks the dropping of charges was part of supposed deal between Honasan and Malacañang.

On amnesty for Trillanes or Honasan earlier floated by Ermita, Bunye said the matter has not been discussed in the Cabinet or the security cluster.

Trillanes was quoted by GO spokesman Adel Tamano as being “unreceptive” to the idea of amnesty as this may be perceived as betrayal of the 11 million who voted for him because of his stance against corruption. – With Jocelyn Montemayor

    This is not unexpected. Honasan can go with Enrile and join Gloria in her twilight zone. They will be just just part of history of a despicable past.

    The emergence of Sen. Trillanes, like David in his epic battle against Goliath, is something they can’t simply ignore.

  2. What about the tons of evidence the DoJ presented that pointed to Gringo as the mastermind? Videos, documentary evidences are now all worthless. Where does it leave the accomplices now?

    The administration can deny all it wants, what is so glaring is that after Gringo cozied up to Glueria, everything seemed to favor him. Nabibibili din pala!

    We could see now the all-out move of the administration to pin down Sen. Trillanes. We could see now the likes of Gonzalez, Ermita and Bunye as chorus boys with Gloria orchestrating them what and how to sing and suggesting what body language to project. But no amount of their concerted efforts will deter the spirit of Sen. Trillanes for he is now the darling of the crowd. The public is watching on their every move against Sen. Trillanes and they will be ready for any consequences. I could see something will happen. Something, to their surprise, is bound to happen.

    Trillanes statement at the Manila Polo Club Presscon, 22/06/07

    The whole world knows now that Attorney Koko Pimentel is the true choice of the Filipino people for the 12th place in the recent Senatorial Election. Both Chairman Abalos and Congressman Zubiri know that for a fact. Moreover, the people of Maguindanao definitely did not vote 12-0 in favor of Team Unity. Again, both Chairman Abalos and Congressman Zubiri know that for a fact. Therefore, we would definitely not take lightly, any move by COMELEC to desecrate the Maguindanaoans’ sacred right of suffrage by canvassing the manufactured results from the said province.

    In case COMELEC has not noticed it yet, the tides are changing. This is your last chance to do the right thing.

    Sorry, Ellen and the others. What was supposed to be a pre-bid conference turned out to be the bidding itself. Magulo talaga kausap ang gobyerno. I left Zambales at 4 pm.

    Anyway, anong nangyari with the trip? Kwento naman.

  6. TonGuE-tWisTeD TonGuE-tWisTeD

    Naku, Gringo, hanggang ngayon hindi pa rin ako naniniwalang taksil ka rin.

    Pero gusto kong marinig sa iyo mismo kung saang kampo ka nakasabit ngayon. Nagpakahirap kami nung eleksiyon, tapos gaguhan lang pala? Kaya pala di ka nagpakita.

    Kung alam lang sa Pasay na magkakaganyan, kasama ka sanang dinampot sa basurahan!

  7. Elvira Sahara Elvira Sahara

    Mahirap paniwalaan na si Gringo ay mura lang pala! Si Tianak lang ba ipapalit niya sa paninindigan niya? Sayang ka , Gringo pa naman ang ipinangalan sa yo!

    Very klaro naman na ididiin nila si Trillanes kasi hindi ito nag-bow sa gusto nila! At saka palagay ko, ang pag-dropped ng charges kay Honasan ay isang EXAMPLE for Trillanes to see na ganyan din ang mangyayari sa kanya pag sumunod siya sa mga wishes ni Madam Tianak!

    Ay, sorry na lang po sila! Walang price si Senator Trillanes! Manigas kayo!
    P:S: for DOJ Secretary:
    Oy, ang pinakabulok na DOJ secretary diyan…tama na inang pagluhud-luhod mo kay Tianak, ka-tigulang na sa imo…parutpot lang ang utok mo gihapon!!!

  8. Elvira Sahara Elvira Sahara

    “The DOJ obviously acted on the basis of the evidence. If the evidence was strong, I don’t think that would be the action of the DoJ,” Press Secretary Ignacio Bunye said.

    Oh, how fast could Bunyeta justify DOJ’s action! They couldn’t even wait for a single reaction, here they are, loosening up the MAD DOG’s unwanted COVER-UP!

    Aw, c’mon Piggies…your action on Honasan is an old trick!
    Buking na kayo!

    Palace finds Honasan is giving way and he could tip the balance in the senate. So order ni Mrs Arroyo ay itapon ang mga papeles nasa ibabaw ng mesa ni Raul. Half of those files are kay Senator Trillanes. Well, at least it turns out Mrs Arroyo is still at the helms.

  10. I am not surprised at the sudden change of heart for Honasan who must have vowed to help the creep stay in power. But who is this idiot, the unconfirmed Secretary of Injustice, trying to frighten with his silly statements? Time to remove these crooks from their seats and pull them down their high horses.

    I hope nobody there is chickening out now. Itayo na ang bandila bago mawala ang Pilipinas. Remember what happened to Yugoslavia!!!

  11. Tongue T:

    Kaya maganda talaga ang sumusunod sa prinsipyo, line upon line, precept upon precept, na nakasulat sa banal na tipan. Everything is explicit there about immorality, fornication, etc. Kung sinusunod iyan mismo ng mga pare, pihado ko hindi
    malalagay sa upuan ang mga ungas na iyan.

    Dito sa Japan, pag may babaerong nabalitang nakaupo, sinisibak kasi kailangan kasi silang maging ehemplo ng kalinisan! In the Philippines, it is status symbol to have as many “kabit” as one can afford to have.

    I remember when I was a kid, my sister and I went to watch a Congressional session for some term paper. I was barely 10 then but I was shocked to see those crooks debating on whether a Congressman should be kicked out or not for going AWOL all the time as he was reportedly busy with his kabits. Then, he made an angry plea by saying, “Gusto ninyong mawala lahat ang tao dito?” What he meant to say was that everyone had concubines–kabit–and that his fellow Congressmen should not be pointing their fingers on him for he was not different from them. No wonder the Philippines has gone down this low—and to the gutter!

    Told you, guys, you should not have voted for Honasan. His deceitful visit to Malacanang should have been your fair warning. Now, we see why.

    I don’t trust people who brush shoulders with the devil, for there is nothing good about it. Sabi nga sa Bible, “No servant can serve two masters: for either he will hate the one, and love the other; or else he will hold to the one, and despise the other. Ye cannot serve God and mammon.” (Luke 16:13, Matt. 6:24)

    Schumey: “what happened to the tons of evidences….? In today’s lingo, they were stolen!

  13. parasabayan parasabayan

    I knew it! The condition for Honasan’s liberty is his allegiance to the tiyanak. Now, we are stuck with him for the next 6 yrs. Any case brought out against the tiyanak will be opposed by Honasan for sure! Isa pa ang kulang, si Zubiri. So Abalaos is trying so hard to get him into the senate. But no matter what, the weight of the opposition is heavier, Trllianes is there, Escudero and Alan Cayetano. UI believe that the evil forces in the Senate will not win!

  14. If I were you, guys, I would have faith in the new or renewed Filipinos, who have voted for the GO believing that they can help free the country of these crooks. Don’t believe the media that have fallen prey to the unano who is not at the helm but at it again with her mischiefs.

    The last election should have them shaking and peeing in their pants. You bet, PSB, the evil forces not just in the Senate will not win! Evil can never win over good!!! The people can be deceived but God, no doubt, cannot be mocked, and the time for reckoning is near!!!

  15. There is a big difference in fact between being at the helm and running crazy and issuing orders like those issued by Herod when Christ was born as when he ordered infants to be killed. It has a lot of parallels with what the idiotic criminal and her husband are doing now.

    I just feel sorry for the Filipinos that they have not had the luxury of a more efficient and dedicated police force, and reason why politicians here can be jailed or just self-destruct when they are caught doing hanky-panky. Tangi na sa Pilipinas, nahuli nang lumalabag sa batas, Secretary of Justice pa rin, and making justice there to be prefixed with in as in injustice! 😛

  16. Raul Gonzales is singing another tune from the same score sheet. He is using the very same evidence to prove that there is no case against Gringo- the very same evidence he used to implicate Gringo four years ago.

    Shades of Rizal Day 2002… Divisiveness it was that prompted Aling Gloria to declare her withdrawal from the presidential elections. The same divisiveness “gave” her the reason to run anyway.

    Gringo, now, must, in no uncertain terms, tell the nation where he stands. The hottest places in hell are reserved for people who, in times of great moral crises, afford themselves the comfort of neutrality.

  17. If I were a Philippine policeman, I would protest against this statement by the idiot and wannabe criminal calling himself “Secretary of Justice” that “the PNP’s Criminal Investigation and Detection Group of the PNP, failed to establish Honasan’s alleged involvement in the failed coup as instigator or playing a leading role in the Oakwood incident.”

    I would feel insulted if after a thorough investigation and I have been made to believe that there were sufficient grounds to prosecute people like Honasan based on sound and valid evidences, an official of the government like SiRaulo would say the above and confirm what many already know about the lousy PNP, another agency that apparently needs to be overhauled and separated from the military. Tangi na. anong klaseng DOJ iyan na mismong pulis binababoy! No wonder, marami akong kakilalang pulis sa Pilipinas, walang ganang paghusayan ang trabaho nila. Kurakutan na lang ang inaatupag kasi magtrabaho ka o hindi, pareho rin!!!

    Puede ba, patalsikin na ang mga inutil! Takot na takot ang mga hayop kay Senator Trillanes kasi matino. Hindi nila katulad na puro kahayupan lang ang alam!

    Junking the “coup raps vs Honasan”, one can’t help but believe that Gringo did make a deal w/ Malacanan. And to think that “The Inspiration” of the Oakwood mutinee was Greg Honasan. He doesn’t seem to have any qualms about junking his men who are in detention. Unlike Senator Trillanes who has said that he would prefer to be w/ his men.

    Parang Honasan became a trapo na ren. Let us pray & hope that Senator Trillanes is able to ward off the temptation of the rotten system.

    akala ko ay magkakaroon ako ng pagsisisihan sa pag-uurong ko ng suporta kay honasan nitong mga huling araw matapos na siya ay ideklarang nanalong pansampung senador subalit sa biglang pag 360 degrees na ikot ni siraulo gagongonzalez sa pagbabasura ng pinanggagalaitihan niyang pagdidiin kay honasan na kasangkot siya at may pakana ng pag-aalsa sa oakwood, napatunayan kong tama ang aking desisyon!

    This recent statement of the InJustice Secretary siRaulo Gonzalez is plain and simple selective justice.

    ang pagbasura sa kasong inihahabol na parang asong ulol noon ni siraulo gagonggonzalez ang siyang tuluyang MAGPAPASARA ng bunganga ni honasan at wala na siyang gagawin kundi ang PURIHIN ang pamamahala ni gloria MAKAGARAPAL arroyo at sasabihin pang tunay na gumaganda ang ekonomiya sa ilalim ng administrasyon ng bruha!

    magiging tagapagtanggol na siya ng babaeng dati niyang ISINUSUKA magiging NATIONAL RECONCILIATION ang pamagat ng kanilang duet na kanta!

    tanging ang kyut ng ina nila!

  23. Sampot Sampot

    I see it as a “divide and conquer” for Malacanan and a selfish act of Mr. Honasan to dance with Glueria. Their mutual interests are definitely served. The military men on the field will become divided – this is what GLueria is hoping for. Every action from this government is always military in nature due to a number of military men serving her.

    Si Honasan, simula’t sapul, ay walang sariling paninindigan. Kung ano ang dikta ni Enrile siya namang gagawin.

    For Sen. Trillanes, i think it would be a complement for him or anybody to be labeled as a rebel or dissident by this bogus administration.

    Allow me to post the whole news from Journal Online:

    Villar, Trillanes nagkainitan sa kulungan
    By: Marlon Purificacion

    PARANG bata umanong tumanggap ng ‘lecture’ si Senate President Manny Villar sa bagitong si Senator-elect Antonio Trillanes matapos umanong magpatumpik-tumpik sa partehan ng committee chairmanship.

    Isang mapagkakatiwalaang source sa loob ng detention cell ng Magdalo leader sa Fort Bonifacio ang nagkumpirmang mainitan ang naging pag-uusap nina Villar at Trillanes dahil maagang pinupulitika ng una ang partehan ng komite.

    “Na-lektuyaran siya ni Trillanes nang dalawin niya sa kulungan, ” anang source, patungkol sa naging pagdalaw ni Villar kay Trillanes noong Lunes.

    Ayon sa source, kaagad nabasa ni Trillanes ang maagang pamumulitika ni Villar matapos ilutang ng Senate president ang posibleng alyansa sa mga miyembro ng Wednesday Group.

    Hindi rin umano nagustuhan ni Trillanes ang maagang pagpapakita ng kulay ni Villar ngayong 2010 presidential election matapos harangin ang pag-upo ni Senador Manuel Roxas III bilang chair ng committee on finance na mababakante ni outgoing Senador Ralph Recto.

    Bukod sa komite ni Recto, ayaw din umanong ibigay ni Villar kay Senador Panfilo “Ping” Lacson ang chairmanship ng Senate Blue Ribbon Committee na mababakante ni administration Senator Joker Arroyo.

    Ang gustong mangyari ni Villar, ibigay sa ka-tropang si Senate majority floor leader Francis Pangilinan ang mababakanteng chairmanship ni Arroyo, kalakip ang pangambang magagamit sa ‘paghahanda’ ni Lacson sa 2010 presidential election ang komite.

    “Obvious daw kasi ang dating sa kanya (Trillanes) ni Villar na 2010 ang puntirya kaya ayaw niyang ibigay ang Blue Ribbon kay Ping (Lacson) at finance kay Mar (Roxas),”anang source.

    Hindi umano nakahuma si Villar nang harap-harapang bateryahin at soplahin ni Trillanes sa senaryong hindi makakakuha ng suporta sa kanya kung iisipin ng nabangit ang 2010 presidential election.

    “Trillanes told him to his face na kung 2010 ang iniisip niya (Villar), dapat importante ang kredibilidad niya bilang oposisyon kaya di dapat s’ya nakikipag-transaksyon sa mga administration senator,” anang source.

  27. xanadu xanadu

    Matindi ang salita ni Sen. Trillanes sa huling talata sa itaas. Para niyang sinabing sige, Sen. Villar, lumarga sa iyong pamumulitika agad sa pamamangka sa dalawang ilog. Ngayon pa’y sinasabi ko sa iyong wala kang suportang makukuha sa akin at sa aking mga taga-subaybay.

    Dapat nga namang ayusin muna ng oposisyon ang kanilang hanay bago pumalaot sa pangsariling interes. Basahin din nila ang damdamin ng mga botante kung sila ang pinagkatiwalaan ng mahalagang halal.

    Sa ganitong eksena, lalong marami ang bumibilib sa paninindigan ni Sen. Trillanes.

  28. mlm18_corpuz mlm18_corpuz

    xanadu, alam mo nong nangyari ang oakwood isa ako sa masugid na tagahanga ni senator antonio trillanes kaya nga nong kumandidato sya sya ang number sa listahan ko dahil sa mga sinabi mo lumakas ang loob ko na sana ipagpapatuloy niya ang kaniyang sinimulan kaya ko nasabing sana di siya lalambot kasi nong tinanong siya nong proklamation niya kung ano masasabi dito sa bulok na gobyerno ni arroyo di na siya nagsalita

    We could see now that they can’t ignore the emergence of Sen. Trillanes in the political scene. Kahit pang-11 lang siya sa senatorial race, Sen. Villar should be wise enough that he can’t go against the so called Trillanes Tsunami. He should realize that his money can’t buy the heart and mind of those who went for Sen. Trillanes even they also voted for him. The presidency is a different ballgame.

  32. I told you, guys, walang tatalo sa kahusayan kay Senator Trillanes. What I hear he says, I like kasi. This guy must have been really inspired of God!!! Kasi iyan ang talagang pinili ng Diyos. Hindi puedeng mag-compromise sa mga demonyo at hudas!

    Attaboy, Senator Trillanes. Marami kaming nasa likod mo! Buti nga sinupalpal mo si Villar. Mahirap talaga ang mga balimbing lalo pa ngayong babuyan na ang ginagawa ng mga walanghiyang walang pagmamahal sa bansa nila. Nakakasuka talaga.

    Pasasalamat ni Sen. Trillanes!

    Sa Lahat ng Patriotikong Pilipino,

    Sa tulong ng Maykapal ay matagumpay nating napagkaisa ang ating mga diwa at adhikain para sa bayan. Ito ay sa kabila ng pisikal na limitasyon na idinulot ng pagkakakulong sa atin. Sa tibay ng ating nabuong paninindigan, walang nagawa ang pulitikang tradisyunal upang supilin ang rumaragasang boses ng tunay na pagbabago.

    Ang tagumpay natin sa nakaraang halalan ay indikasyon ng lumalawak na hanay ng mga mamamayang naghahangad ng kalayaan mula sa katiwalian at kahirapan. Higit silang mapangahas at matapang para sa ikabubuti ng bayan. Umasa kayo na gagawin natin ang lahat upang hindi masayang ang paghalal sa atin bilang kinatawan ng mamamayan sa Senado, nakakulong man tayo o hindi. Hinihiling ko na ipagpatuloy natin ang ating nabuong pagsama-sama at maging aking katuwang sa pagganap ng bago kong tungkulin sa bayan. Maraming salamat sa inyong tiwala at pakikipagisa… Mabuhay ang Inang Bayan!

    Nagpupugay, Antonio F Trillanes IV

    Magno,
    Nung una kong mabasang iiwan mo na ang organisasyong kasama kang nagpatayog, gusto kitang pigilan dahil sa personal na pagkakilala ko kay Gringo na hindi basta iniiwan ang prinsipyo at ang laban ng Guardians na kanyang pinamumunuan ay hindi ikokompromiso para sa personal na interes lang. Iyan ang ipinagkaiba ni Gringo kina Bibit (naging customs inspector), Maligalig (naging presidente ng BASECO), Purugganan (naging undersecretary ni Gloria) at iba pang nagbenta ng prinsipyo habang inaakusahan pa rin si Gringo na “utak-pulbura” daw.

    Ang problema kay Gringo, masyadong playing safe. Di tulad ng padrinog si Enrile na hayag ang posisyon sa anumang isyu, si Honasan ay nananahimik sa kasalukuyang hinalang kakampi na siya ng mga hudas. Dahil diyan, masisirang tuluyan ang kanyang kredibilidad sa tuluyang pag-iwas sa isyu.

    Kaliangang magpakalalaki siya at harapin ang anumang consequence ng kanyang pagbaliktad kung tutoo man. Ang mga taong bumoto sa kaniya ay hindi maipagkakailang umasa na siya pa rin ang dating Gringong hindi kailanman sasapi sa mga tiwali, sinungaling, at mapang-api.

    Sa isang banda, consistent si Gringo sa kanyang mga sinasabi, maging sa RAM 20th anniversary reunion, dalawang araw bago ang Feb. 2006 “coup d’etat” nila ex-YOU founders Querubin at Lim, sinabi niyang public dialogues are meant to address our real problems, not to agitate the public to turn against the government even as he added any effort to effect change in government should be through peaceful and sober means.(www.tribune.net.ph/20060223/headlines/20060223hed2.html)

    Sa ngayon, hindi nakakatulong ang kanyang pananahimik. Lalo’t ang mga maalab na mga tagasunod ng Guardians ay parang binuhusan ng malamig na tubig nang matsismis na nakipagkasunduan siya sa Malakanyang.

    Nararapat lang na paliwanagan niya ngayon din ang mga mamamayang naniwala at bumoto sa kanya.

  36. TonGuE-tWisTeD TonGuE-tWisTeD

    Para sa akin ay nakaganda para kay AT4 (Trillanes) ang pagwalang-sala kay Gringo nitong Sir Raul O. Gonzales na naka-adult diaper. Maaalalang maging ang gagong si Esperon ay nagsabi nung isang taon na “tanga” raw ang mga nagbalak mag-junta dahil nag-iwan ng listahan ng 14 na mga lider ng “The Last Revolution” at si Gringo nga daw ang utak.

    Paano na iyong ebidensiyang litratong kasama si Gringo na kinunan kuno sa cellphone ng isang kaklase ng Magdalo? Paano na ang salaysay ng mga “witness” na nagsabing kasama ni Gringo ang grupo ni AT4 nung mag-blood compact? Paano na yung iba pang ebidensiyang gigil na isasampal daw ng Gunggong sa DOJ kay Gringo?

    Kung ngayon ay inaamin nilang walang kwenta ang mga ebidensiyang ito, hindi na nila ito magagamit laban sa Magdalo at kay AT4!

    Kahit sinong pulpol na abugado, ganyan ang magiging depensa.

    A good reading is Columnist Isagani Cruz’ The supremacy of civilian authority.

    Now that Navy Lt. Antonio F. Trillanes IV has been proclaimed as one of the winners in the recent senatorial elections, the chief of staff and the other generals of the Armed Forces of the Philippines will have to salute their humble military subordinate as Sen. Antonio Trillanes beginning June 30. This reversal of roles will be in keeping with the constitutional provision under Art. II, Sec. 3 that “civilian authority is, at all times, supreme over the military.” Please read the rest of the story at the Philippine Daily Inquirer.

    Reveral of roles. In Tagalog: Gulong ng Palad.

    Gringo has completely forgotten his ideologies in exchange for his freedom. The tiyanak knew exactly how to hold his balls! He did not like to stay longer in prison unlike the Magadalos, Gen Miranda, Gen Lim, Col Querubin et all who would rather languish in their detention cells rather than strike a “deal” with the tiyanak!

    Trllianes is still very idealistic. I hope that he stays this way and the system will not corrupt him. He is admirable indeed if he can show dismay with Villar’s politicking.

  39. rose rose

    Trillanes is one stout hearted man who will fight for the rights he adore.

  40. PSB,

    Ako no bilib kay Gringo kasi nga dahil fornicator ang taong iyan. Hindi ako sa nagmamalinis, kaya lang may takot ako sa Diyos at marunong sumunod sa mga utos niya. Adultery, in fact, is a grave and serious sin. May warning ang Panginoon doon sa mga bansang pinamumunuan ng mga babaero at lalakero na hindi binabasbasan ng Panginoon.

    Ngayon at least alam na nating may pag-asa ang Pilipinas dahil kay Senator Trillanes, at kahit anong gawin ni unano at mga galamay niya, mamayani pa rin ang kagustuhan ng Diyos—na manilbihan si Trillanes, and if he remains true and faithful to his vows to God, his country and fellowmen na patitinuin niya ang Pilipinas, walang makakahadlang sa kaniya dahil tutulungan siya ng Panginoon. Walang duda diyan sa totoo lang.

    Gotta go, magsisimba pa ako.

    Gringo burado na sa opposition bloc

    (Rey Marfil)

    ——————————————————————————–

    Kasabay ang pagkakabasura sa kasong rebelyon ni Sen. Gregorio “Gringo” Honasan, tuluyan na itong inalis sa listahan ng oposisyon sa pagbubukas ng 14th Congress ngayong Hulyo 23.

    Kapalit ang pakiusap na huwag banggitin ang kanilang pangalan, tatlong opposition senators ang nagkumpirma na ang pagiging ‘madulas’ ni Honasan ang dahilan kung bakit tinigilan ng kanilang grupo ang pakikipag-usap dito.

    Ilang araw bago naiproklama ng Commission on Elections (Comelec), nagkaroon ng sikretong pag-uusap ang ilang miyembro ng Philippine Military Academy (PMA) Class 71, kinabibilangan nina Honasan, Sen. Panfilo “Ping” Lacson at natalong senatorial bet Zosimo Paredes na kandidato ng Ang Kapatiran.

    Sa naunang pag-uusap ng ilang miyembro ng Class 71, hinihimok si Honasan na sumama sa oposisyon at nagawa pa nitong dumalo sa ilang pagtitipon ng minority bloc sa Senado subalit bigla umanong nagbago ang pakikitungo ng retiradong colonel.

    “Kasama pa namin iyan dati sa meeting pero ngayon, talagang deklaradong administration si Gringo,” anang source na itinuro si Sen. Juan Ponce Enrile bilang timon sa pagsapi ni Honasan sa administration bloc dahil “aral”, aniya, ang retiradong colonel sa itinuturing nitong ‘ama-amahan’ sa Senado.

    Unang pinagdudahan ang pagpayag ng korte na makapagpiyansa si Honasan sa kabila ng kasong rebelyong kinakaharap na umano’y bahagi ng ‘secret deal’ sa Malacañang at pinakahuli ang tuluyang pagkabasura ng kaso.

    TonGuE-tWisTeD Says: “Kung ngayon ay inaamin nilang walang kwenta ang mga ebidensiyang ito, hindi na nila ito magagamit laban sa Magdalo at kay AT4!”

    tongue, huwag tayong pakakasiguro sapagkat kasabihan sa batas na ang testimonya ng isang bata ay isang mabigat at matibay na batayan upang ang isang kaso ay maipanalo o maipatalo. di ba sabi ninyo ay nakadayaper na itong si siraulo gagonggonzalez?

    kaya talo na ang kaso ni sonny trillanes sapagkat halos sanggol na itong utak anay na sekretari op indyastis!

    sey mo?

    Mas maraming testi ang mga bata sa Friendster blog ni AT4!

    Kung edad ang pagbabasehan ng testi, lusot na si AT4! Iyan ang masasabi ko.

    (lalo yatang gumulo, a)

  45. I can’t quite see how Honasan can now fit into an informal Cavaliers Club with Biazon, Lacson & Trillanes as members who have all three commented that they want Schizoglo out of office. Honasan for his part has shown that after he admitted his requested meeting with Schizoglo and the subsequent Bail and all criminal culpability and dismissal in connection with the 2003 Oakwood mutiny, reversing the finding of probable cause by a panel of Department of Justice prosecutors.
    The interviews Honasan give of late are to say the least negative, non-plus and meaningless since his meeting with Schizoglo wheb it seems he sold his soul to the she-devil to gain his freedom. Honasan has let so many people down, is he showing his true colors.

    may honasan rot in hell!..the man has no conviction. AT4 will have much to go through as in baptism by fire but he will be surely pass everything as he has a pure heart and passion!
    Congratulations Senator Trillanes! I hope one day i can be able to shake your hand.
