He is entitled to be released. We are just waiting for the written order from the court.
We are filing the petition by early next week.
What we're up against is a government without respect for the rule of law -- (public officials) placing the law in their own hands and making unilateral decisions.
We will find out if he committed violations of his oath as a member of the Philippine Bar. This is among our options.
We don't accept the legitimacy of these proceedings.
The moment a party loses trust in them, then it's their duty to self-inhibit.
This is scripted, and we can't blame you because you are acting on orders of your superiors.
They are now working as agents of the government and their duty is to pose as witnesses for the government detailing a made-up testimony.
In all my 50 years (of practicing law), this is the most complicated case in the history of the DoJ.
In fact, the DoJ should self-inhibit because one party had lost confidence in the department.
The charge filed against my client has no probative value and it would eventually be dismissed.
