00:00The palace clarified that no discussions have been made regarding the position of Solicitor General
00:05Minardo Guevara as the issue remains new. This comes after questions were raised about the possibility of his removal
00:12following the office of the Solicitor General or OSG's decision to recuse itself from
00:17representing government officials in the petition for a writ of habeas corpus filed by the children of former President Rodrigo Duterte.
00:26Guevara defended the OSG's decision
00:28stating that there was no conflict of interest as the agency is mandated to uphold national interests.
00:34He also stressed that the recusal was not personal but institutional.
00:38Meanwhile, the palace sees no issue with former presidential spokesperson Harry Rocas' request for asylum in the Hague while the
00:46investigation against Duterte is ongoing.
00:58It would be good if Soljen himself assesses himself if he is still qualified to stand as Solicitor General.
01:05These documents were only seen, bank documents of Tony Harry Roque in Lucky South 99.
01:12Documents of his assistant AR de la Serna were also seen in Lucky South 99.
01:21Third, there is also a document referring to contract of lease with a certain manager, alleged manager of Lucky South 99.
01:30It was also seen in front of the palace.
01:35So how could there be a political persecution if all the pieces of evidence are overwhelming?
01:42So, we don't see any political persecution.
01:46He should face his case here so that he can show the people that he is not guilty.
