Liberal Party
stalwart Senator Francis Pangilinan strongly reacts to the personal withdrawal
of lawyer Jude Sabio of the complaint filed in the International Criminal Court
(ICC) wherein it charges President Rodrigo Roa Duterte on the alleged lapses in
the country's ongoing relentless anti-illegal drug campaign.
He calls on the
public to reject “double-faced” individuals like Atty. Jude Sabio, the
opposition senator said.
Pangilinan said
Sabio has lost his credibility after he turned his back against efforts to seek
justice for the alleged human victims of President Rodrigo Roa Duterte under
his administrations war on drugs.

“After his ‘180-degree turn’ he has no credibility
whatsoever,” Pangilinan said in a statement.
“The public should reject this balimbing. He is
lying and he knows it,” the president of the Liberal Party (LP) said.
Pangilinan said the bodies of thousands of
Filipinos who were victims of extrajudicial killing (EJK) were “proof of a
man-made disaster, if not mass murder as government policy, that the ICC is
mandated to investigate and address.”
“There has been a series of natural disasters, from
the successive earthquakes in Mindanao, the Christmas typhoon, and the latest
Taal eruption,” the opposition senator said.
“Instead of political attacks by the
administration, everyone should be focusing on the tens of thousands of our
affected kababayans whose lives have been dramatically changed and whose
livelihoods have been severely affected, lalong-lalo na ang mga magsasaka at
mangingisda,” he said.
