The Court of Appeals (CA) has sustained its previous ruling that paved the way for the Quezon City Regional Trial
Court to compel Felix Nathaniel “Angel” Manalo II, estranged brother of Iglesia Ni Cristo’s executive minister Eduardo Manalo, to reveal the identities of his witnesses and submit summaries of their testimonies in connection with the illegal firearms and ammunition case filed against him and several others.
“All told, in the absence of a novel argument raised by accused-appellant, we find no compelling reason to modify, much less reverse our February 23, 2023 decision,” the resolution said. The CA held that the right against self-incrimination should be invoked at a proper time, that is, when a question calling for an incriminating answer is propounded.
