Lawyer: Ex-DA chief may link Arroyo to fertilizer fund scam

GMANews.TV

GMANews.TV - Thursday, July 8

The former Department of Agriculture secretary who fled the country four years ago may implicate former President and now Pampanga Rep. Gloria Macapagal-Arroyo in the alleged misuse of multi-million fertilizer funds in 2004, a lawyer claimed on Thursday.

...........

Lorenzo was the superior of former Agriculture undersecretary Jocelyn "Joc-Joc" Bolante, whom the Senate blue ribbon committee charged for plunder in connection with the scam. The case is pending before the Office of the Ombudsman. (See: Senate seeks plunder charges vs Joc-Joc Bolante, 8 others)

.............

Bolante, known to be close to former First Gentleman Jose Miguel Arroyo, allegedly used the P728-million fertilizer funds to bankroll the 2004 campaign of Mrs. Arroyo. He has since denied committing any anomaly and had cleared the former First Couple of any involvement in the scandal.

On Thursday, Roque said that because Bolante had refused to divulge his knowledge of the scandal, maybe Lorenzo can spill the beans.

"Kung gusto mo linisin ang pangalan mo, ilantad mo ang katotohanan. Hindi puwedeng idaan sa political contribution (If you want to clear your name, you need to tell the truth. You can't just make a political contribution," Roque said, referring to the P20-million campaign contribution of Lorenzo's brother, Martin, to the Aquino presidential campaign this year.

"Nakatingin ang bayan kung ang P20 million ay makakabili ng immunity, o despite the P20 million, totoo ang sinasabi na walang reconciliation without justice. (The public is watching whether P20 million can buy impunity, or despite the P20 million, he will fulfill his promise that there can be no reconciliation without justice)," Roque added.

Is this going to be an acid test on how sincere/resolute P-Noy is in his promises to the Filipino people? Your opinions, please. Thank you.

PNoy is setting a good example by following traffic rules. Here's Binay doing the opposite: not stopping on red lights...turning left when the sign glaringly says NO LEFT TURN. What is Binay doing? Your thoughts, please. Thank you.

now that the campaign/election is over? Your opinions, please. Thank you.

how others have called him "ab-noy" ? Your opinions, please. Thank you.

Is it a desperate move by Villar to allow his mother to take the cudgels for him? Is it to sway the Filipinos' hearts to vote for him knowing how Filipinos are soft-hearted and how they readily champion the underdog? Your opinions, please. Thank you.

to the purported all-out support of the Ampatuans for his candidacy? What prompted the Ampatuans to change "kuno" allegiance when it was widely known they were supporters of Villar? Your opinions, please. Thank you.

Do you think the decision of the acting Justice Secretary finding 2 Ampatuans not guilty of murder in the famed Maguindanao massacre have already been decided a long time ago? Your opinions, please. Thank you.

Your opinions, please. Thank you.

this statement comes from a dialogue in the movie Brooklyn's Finest. Just how are problems opportunities for humans. Care to explain? Thank you.

Your thoughts please. Thank you.

do you still feel christmas in your heart?

your thoughts, please. thank you.

Not so much for the women but for the men. Do men put a high regard on a woman's virginity that it should become a "requirement" before marriage?

Your thoughts, please. Thank you.

that the MILF committed the atrocity in Maguindanao?

Your thoughts, please.

if the culprits' intention was to silence their rival, why include the journalists and the other innocent victims who were at the wrong place at the wrong time like the workers who happened to tag behind the convoy?

Was the anger and hatred so overwhelming that the master planner had to annihilate everyone who dared cross him? Unbelievable...and I thought this kind of scene only happens in films.

we are espousing freedom yet, we sometimes keep our silence for fear of reprisals. look what happened to the journalists killed in Maguindanao.

Your thoughts, please. Thank you.

or, will it end as one of the unsolved cases (hogwash investigation) of the century considering that both clans have close ties with the President? Is the President going to make good her promise to run after the culprits and bring them to justice or is she just paying lip-service to soothe the aggrieved party?

Your thoughts please. Thank you.
