Pasalamat ni Capt. Dante Langkit

Nakatanggap ako kahapon ng text galing kay dating Army Capt. Dante Langkit, isa sa napawalang sala noong Lunes sa court martial na naglilitis ng mutiny pag-aklas daw laban kay Gloria Arroyo noong Pebrero 2006 pagkatapos mabulgar na nandaya siya noong 2004 na eleksyun gamit ang military.

Sobra apat na taon ding nakakulong si Langkit. Nakalabas siya kasama ang kapwa niyang akusado nang naalis na sa Malacañang si Gloria Arroyo. Pinayagan siyang lumabas din noong kampanya dahil tumakbo siya bilang gubernador ng Kalinga. Natalo siya.

Ito ang kanyang text para sa amin ni Charmaine Deogracias ng NHK TV: “ Thank you for your support. All through the times of our ordeal you were there. In fact it was in those times that we came to know one another. You were one of the very few whose presence we felt.

“Those moments were bleak as though the right things which we believed in as basically right and noble for our country were not right after all. Our older brothers became our executioners and PMA was silent when we were unjustly incarcerated.
