00:00In a move that's stirring the legal waters, Atong Ang's camp is challenging the Department of Justice's decision to press charges in the high-profile missing Sabongeros case.
00:11Ang's team is set to file a motion for reconsideration, claiming the accusations against him are baseless and can be disproven, as we hear from our Floyd Brinz.
00:20Atong Ang's camp has opposed the decision of the Department of Justice to file a complaint against the businessman and other accused in relation to the case of missing Sabongeros,
00:32to include 10 counts of kidnapping with homicide and 16 counts of kidnapping with serious illegal detention.
00:40According to Attorney Gabriel Villaril, spokesperson of Atong Ang, Ang's council will file a motion for reconsideration to request a reversal of the resolution.
00:49Ang's camp expressed confidence that all the malicious and fake accusations made by whistleblower Julie Dondon Patidongan against Ang can be refuted.
00:58Yung amin unang ninihingi na sinasuggest na ibalik itong kaso sa CIDG para sa ganun, maimbestigan ng tama.
01:10Kasi ang nangyari rito, minadali lang ng Department of Justice, nung paltan ni paltan yung kepe ng CIDG.
01:18Ang gagawin lang namin is to show the panel that marami sila mga bagay na nakapresenta na sa kanila, nakafile na sa kanila, na hindi nila nakonsidera.
01:33The DOJ, meanwhile, has dismissed the complaint against actress Gretchen Barreto.
01:39In its over 100-page resolution by prosecutors, the DOJ claims the evidence against Barreto is speculative and uncorroborated,
01:48or they have the basis for her involvement in the abduction of the Sabongeros.
01:52Barreto is one of those pointed out by Patidongan as part of the Pitmaster Alpha Group.
01:56Meanwhile, Malacanang assured that there will be no special treatment in the case of Atong Ang
02:01because the DOJ has sufficient evidence for the accusation against Ang.
02:07On the part of the DOJ, meron po silang resolution mismo.
02:11Resolution, nagpapakita ng prima facie evidence na merong reasonable certainty of conviction.
02:18So, nasa kamay na po ito ng Korte.
