00:00Thank you very much.
00:31Kasunod ng paulit-ulit na pagsulpot ng pangalan ni Col. Raymond Dante Lachica sa testimonyo ni Gina Acosta, dating Special
00:38Dispersing Officer in the Office of the Vice President, inusisa ng presiding officer kung bakit hindi kasama si Lachica sa
00:45mga susunod na ipapatawag na testigo ng prosekusyon.
01:00Do we expect that to happen?
01:01We will have to revisit the least to come up with our final decision as to who will be presented
01:07before this impeachment court, Your Honor.
01:09But again, you cannot deny the fact that Queen Lachica was starring in the testimony.
01:15We confirmed that, Your Honor.
01:16Dapat nga bang ipatawag ng Senate Impeachment Court si Lachica?
01:20Sabi ni Atty. Michael Tu, Assistant Professor ng UP College of Law.
01:24Sa tingin ko para malinawan tayo kung paano talaga nagastos yung pera na yun.
01:30Hindi man kung paano nagastos.
01:31Kung meron mang ebidensya na kung saan nga napunta ang pera ay kailangan natin marinig at matanong si Col. Lachica.
01:40Kabuang kalahating bilyong pisong cash ang ibinigay rao ni Acosta kahit hindi sakop si Lachica ng fidelity bond.
01:47Ang accountable officer in this case tulad ni Ginang Acosta ang mag-propose ng fidelity bond.
01:57Ma-assure tayo na talagang meron kang pangahawakan yung gobyerno na mag-iingat ka sa pera mo na yan kasi
02:03ikaw mismo nagbigay ka ng pera mo na maaaring mawala sa'yo.
02:07Para kay Tew, nakapagtataka ang sinabi ni Acosta na nagtiwala lang siya kay Lachica.
02:13Kasi para saan pa na naging accountable officer ka, kung hindi ka rin naman mapapanagot, hindi ka naman makakasagot doon
02:23sa mga tanong na dapat ay nasasagot ng accountable officer.
02:26Ikaw nga ang accountable officer, hindi ko alam kung ang tugon dito ay kailangan amyandahan ng ating batas para mas
02:32mahigpit.
02:33Pero dito sa paglilitis na ito, hindi rin tayo nalilinawan.
02:38Kung paano nga nangyayari yung certification na ito.
02:41Nabanggit niya na meron naman daw silang internal document na naibigay naman niya yung pera kay Col. Lachica.
02:48Na tinanggap ni Col. Lachica yung 125 million at one point and the other different amounts.
02:53May implication ba ito?
02:55Limitado sa palinaw ko yung value ng document na yan kasi ang punto pa rin na gusto nating malaman ay
03:02paano ba ginastos yung pera?
03:05Naaayon ba sa joint circular o sa dapat paggamitan ng confidential funds?
03:10Nakatagdang sumalam bilang testigo ng prosekusyon ang Assistant Chief of Staff ng OVP na si Lamuel Ortonio.
03:17Pinapasabina na rin ng korte ang tatlong retard at kasalukuya mga opisya ng Armed Forces of the Philippines kagmay sa
03:22confidential funds ng OVP.
03:24Hindi kasama si Col. Lachica.
03:26Ay kay Council for the Prosecutors, Attorney Lorna Capunan, hindi naman ito dahil sa nag-aalangan silang ipatawag si Lachica.
03:33There is no hesitation. It's just not very evaluating because we have 27 witnesses.
03:39Yung tatlo namang Army officers, it's because may certification eh.
03:44They certified the certification that confidential funds is used.
03:50We're not saying that Lachica is not important or that we will dispense with them.
03:55I'm just saying that it's subject to serious consideration.
03:59Natanong din ang depensa kung gagamitin nila si Lachica para pasubalian na manabanggit sa trial.
04:04Hindi pa namin po ibubunyag kung ano yung gagawin natin.
04:09I really beg for your indulgence and your understanding but we really don't want to telegraph our witnesses.
04:14They're not ready to disclose yet if and when lalabas isasama nila sa listahan nila si Col. Lachica.
04:21So hintayin na lang po siguro natin instead of saying they're hesitant or not, I don't want to really conclude
04:27anything at this point.
04:29Ito ang unang balita, Pia Arcangel, GMA News.
