President Marcos clarified that former House Speaker Martin Romualdez is not among the 37 individuals referred to the Ombudsman for corruption charges, but stressed that “no one is immune” from accountability as the investigation expands. (Video courtesy of RTVM)
00:00One more point on your presentation, very obvious, very noticeable po, na marami sa mga pangalang binanggit ninyo, DPWH officials, contractors, pero kakonte, if at all, yung mga nabanggit na legislators, who are?
00:16Well, no, they're part of the list. We'll give you the complete list. I just didn't go through them because there are like 37 of them. So, as I said, you'll get a briefer which will give you more detail on all of the things that I've said today.
00:38Is the former speaker included in the list, sir?
00:41I don't think so because the only evidence that has been made against him is in the Senate. So, I don't know. We don't, no, the speaker, no. Not as yet.
01:04Not as yet. If something else comes out, then he might have to be answerable for something.
01:11So, again, you know, we don't file cases for optics. We file cases to put people in jail or to make people answer.
01:23I know that there are many, many suggestions of who else we should file cases against.
01:30Well, we're fine with that. Provide us the evidence and we will file cases against them.
01:35Kaya't sinabi ko, napakahalaga yung sumbong sa Pangulo dahil marami kaming nakukuhang informasyon dyan.
