00:00 Good evening John Visayas and Meng Ganao.
00:13 A longer term of imprisonment after more than six years of imprisonment
00:20 was given to former Senator Laila de Lima after the court granted her release for the third and final case.
00:27 The court said that the allegation of her having a drug deal with the Philippines is not proven.
00:34 The court also called for a hearsay or a statement from the witness Herbert Colanco
00:40 that de Lima was saving funds for his senatorial bid because he did not hear it from de Lima
00:47 but from the inmate JV Sebastian, who was arrested by Chino Gaston.
00:56 Former Senator Laila de Lima was so emotional and raised her hand when she was granted release
01:03 for the third and final case of the case of the alleged drug trafficking case
01:09 in the area where she was a justice secretary.
01:12 According to the decision of the Montinlupa RTC Judge Henner Hito,
01:16 the charges are more for companionship or being together
01:21 and not because there is a charge in the scene of the crime.
01:25 De Lima and other accused should be allowed to pay their fines because the prosecution said
01:31 that the accused' guilty statement is solid.
01:36 They were allowed to pay a fine of P300,000.
01:40 Finally, I am free. For years, my whole being has been crying out for justice and freedom.
01:58 Two RTC judges held the case before going to Hito.
02:03 Judge Romeo Buenaventura was inhibited by de Lima's camp after he just helped his brother
02:09 who was a former driver who was involved with de Lima in the case.
02:13 Judge Abraham Alcantara was inhibited so that the decision would not be doubted
02:19 because he handled a former case of de Lima.
02:22 I am also thankful to Judge, Honorable Judge Henner Hito for his loyalty to the law and justice.
02:33 De Lima was also thanked by the Marcos Administration for his loyalty to judicial independence.
02:39 De Lima was first brought back to Camp Cramie Detention Center
02:43 for some medical check-ups and other procedures before he was released.
02:48 De Lima's former drivers, Ronnie Dayan, Junel Sanchez, Jose Adriandera and former Bucor Chief Franklin Bucayo
02:52 were also allowed to pay their fines.
03:00 Sir, you are granted bail?
03:03 Sir, Ronnie, what do you say?
03:05 Sir, what do you say?
03:07 You can now?
