| Senator Antonio Trillanes IV |
On Tuesday, Senator
Antonio Trillanes IV said that Malacañang’s call for Supreme Court (SC) Chief
Justice Maria Lourdes Sereno to resign was a “sign that there is a weak
evidence” against the chief justice.
“I believe yung ganung
statement is a sign of weakness ng ebidensya nila. Kung malakas ebidensya mo
ituloy ang impeachment, dalhin dito sa Senado at let the senators decide,”
Trillanes said in a media briefing.
Moreover, Presidential
Spokesperson Harry Roque called on Monday to Sereno to “consider resigning to
spare the institution from any further damage.”
Yet, Sereno’s camp
refused to heed Roque’s call.
In fact, Sereno is
currently facing an impeachment complaint before House of Representatives for
alleged “culpable violation of the Constitution, corruption, other high crimes
and betrayal of public trust for allegedly using public funds to finance her
supposed lavish lifestyle; misdeclaring her statement of assets, liabilities
and net worth; falsifying court documents; and manipulating a Judicial and Bar
Council list for personal and political reasons.”
Meanwhile, Trillanes
was asked about on Roque’s appointment as the new Presidential spokesperson,
the senator said: “He is played to be gallery para matuwa ang kanyang
audience.”
“Kakilala ko sya
kaibigan ko sya alam ko na hindi siya ganyan kaya I won’t attack him frontally.
I will just focus on his principal pero ang word of advise ko, wag sya magsunog
ng tulay mabilis lang yan si Duterte saglit lang yan, kita nyo 18 months na, so
mabilis lang yan pag binalahura nya yan mabilis lang sya dyan,” Trillanes
said.
