Former Negros Oriental Governor Pryde Henry Teves has submitted a counter affidavit denying ownership of guns and explosives retrieved from the HDJ compound he allegedly owned.
This stemmed from the raid conducted by the Philippine National Police-Criminal Investigation and Detection Group at the compound inIn an 89-page counter affidavit, Teves said he never had “actual” and “constructive” possession of the seized firearms, adding that these were found outside the premises of the HDJ compound.
According to Teves, 10 hectares were considered to be the HDJ compound while the remaining 41 hectares were open to anyone. Further, Teves said the items found inside the white van, including hard cash amounting to more than P18 million, also came from unknown origins. Further, he said he is also not expected to know everything that is happening with the premises of the compound as its president.
“A closer look at the house of Respondent Electona will show that the latter had established complete dominion over his property by installing barbed wires and a gate around the immediate vicinity of his house,” he said.
