00:00Pasok na sa Witness Protection Program si dating DPWH Undersecretary Roberto Bernardo,
00:07pero hindi pa maituturing na state witness ayon kay Justice Secretary Jesus Crispin Remulia.
00:13Ibig sabihin, bibigyan siya ng proteksyon, pero posible pa rin masampahan ng kaso.
00:20Nakatutok si Salima Refran.
00:22Provisionally accepted na sa Witness Protection Program si Retired Public Works Undersecretary Roberto Bernardo.
00:33Ibig sabihin, tulad ng ibang nagsalita sa Senate Blue Ribbon Committee,
00:37bibigyan na sila ng proteksyon ng Department of Justice.
00:41Pero, hiniibig sabihin ito na hindi na sila masasampahan ng kaso.
00:45Pag-aaralan rao ng Department of Justice at National Bureau of Investigation ang pahayag ni Bernardo.
00:50At dito ibabase ang reklamang pwedeng ihain sa mga pangalang nabanggit niya sa Senado.
00:57We have to be very careful because once you give the person the status of a state witness,
01:04then you discharge them from criminal and civil liability.
01:08Sinasabi nga namin, pag nagsabi ka ng totoo at ikaw naman ay hindi nakuha ng state witness,
01:14at least pwede ka mag-pre-bargain, you can reduce the gravity of the penalties that can be imposed on you by showing good faith.
01:22Kasi hindi naman pwede lahat state witness eh. Kailangan may malagot pa rin.
01:26Sa kanyang affidavit, isinangkot ni Bernardo, sina Sen. Cheese Escudero,
01:31mga dating Sen. Nancy Binay at Bong Revilla,
01:34Representative Zaldico at iba na nakatanggap daw ng cut sa mga proyekto.
01:39Naunang tinanggap ng DOJ bilang protected witness ang mag-asawang contractor na Curly at Sara Discaia
01:45at mga dating opisyal ng DPWH na sina Henry Alcantara, Bryce Hernandez at J.P. Mendoza.
01:53Pwede rin daw makapasok dito ang nagpakilalang security aide ni Congressman Ko na si Orly Gotesa.
01:59Minomonitor na ng Department of Justice kung nasaan si Congressman Zaldico
02:04at kinukumpirma kung nasa Spain nga raw ito.
02:08Yes, he's being tracked already. We're trying to track him and maraming tumutulong na tao.
02:15Sir, can you confirm if nasa Spain ba talaga siya?
02:18Well, there's a boarding pass. Boarding pass ba yan?
02:22There were flight details sent to us but we have to validate.
02:26To be clear, sir, may ilipo ba siya?
02:28Pero nga rin siya ilipo. Yes, yes.
