The DOJ denied on Thursday the allegation made by Pamplona Mayor Janice Degamo that “someone at the agency” may be manipulating the suspects into recanting their extrajudicial confessions in connection with the killing of her husband.
THE Department of Justice denied on Thursday the allegation made by Pamplona Mayor Janice Degamo that “someone at the agency” may be manipulating the suspects into recanting their extrajudicial confessions in connection with the killing of her husband, Negros Oriental Governor Roel Degamo and nine others last March 4.
In an earlier interview, Mayor Degamo claimed that someone at the agency might be manipulating the suspects in the killing of her husband that led the suspects to recant their previous statements. Clavano said the DOJ is not discounting the possibility that the camp of Teves could be behind the decision of some suspects to recant their statements linking the controversial lawmaker in the gruesome crime.
Both Clavano and Baligod did not name the former DOJ official. Clavano said they are eying the transfer of the suspects to the Philippine National Police headquarters in Camp Crame. Rivero, through his counsel, Danny Villlanueva, also filed a petition for a writ of habeas corpus before the Regional Trial Court of Manila seeking to compel Justice Secretary Jesus Crispin Remulla and NBI director Medardo de Lemos to present the suspect before his wife Queenie Rivero, his two-year-old son Jophiel and 15-year-old stepson Christian.
