Panelo.

Del Rosario claims there is "no rational
explanation"
"We are of course questioning what
the reasons are, why we were detained here or held up," Del Rosario said
earlier Friday.
Spox Panelo said he "cannot also
understand" why Del Rosario still flew to Hong Kong despite Morales'
earlier troubles with immigration officials there.
"Because if I were Del Rosario, I
would have not gone to Hong Kong because I would be—I’m sure, I would
have anticipated, that I would be going to the same ordeal like the former
Ombudsman did. Now why did he go there? That’s my question to him," he
said.
In might be remembered that Del Rosario and Morales filed a case
against Chinese President Xi Jinping in the International Criminal Court for alleged
crimes against humanity. Carpio was also detained at the Hong Kong airport last
May.
