accused detained senator Leila De Lima and former senator Antonio Trillanes IV.

Sabio categorically said that the communication he filed in
2017 in the ICC was “nothing else but a political propaganda” of De Lima,
Trillanes and the opposition Liberal Party.
Atty, Sabio reiterated that he was not paid by any party in
withdrawing the ICC complaint and that he made the decision after realizing that
the opposition only used him to attack President Duterte.
“All of them, they cannot be trusted with the way they
handled me. If you read my withdrawal from the ICC, you will find indications
that these people only want to use and exploit me in their political agenda,”
the lawyer said.
Sabio said Trillanes asked him to file the ICC communication,
he relied on the accounts of confessed hitmen Edgar Matobato and Arturo Lascañas,
who both accused President Duterte of leading the Davao death squad when he was
still mayor of Davao City.
While for De Lima, Sabio said she was behind Matobato’s
filing of murder and kidnapping charges
before the Office of the Ombudsman against the President in 2016 ove rthe
alleged killings in Davao city.
“I personally submitted that complaint before the ombudsman
on orders of Senator De Lima,” he claimed.
