In the same online press conference, the congressman’s lawyer accused Remulla of power tripping by “weaponizing” the ATL. Atty. Ferdinand Topacio said the ATL has a specific definition of what terrorism is or of the crimes that are supposed to be in relation to sowing fear and panic among the people.“Alam ninyo? Hindi ko malaman kung ano ang mararamdaman ng tao na alam ninyo na wine-weaponize nila ‘yung batas eh. Ano bang terrorismo ang ginagawa dito?” Topacio said.
