Justice Secretary Jesus Crispin Remulla claimed that a second surrender feeler was sent through one of his friends by suspended BuCor chief Gerald Bantag who is wanted for masterminding the killing of radio broadcaster Percival “Percy Lapid” Mabasa.
JUSTICE Secretary Jesus Crispin Remulla on Tuesday claimed that a second surrender feeler was sent through one of his friends by suspended Bureau of Corrections chief Gerald Bantag who is wanted for allegedly masterminding the killing of radio broadcaster Percival “Percy Lapid” Mabasa and an inmate who allegedly acted as middleman identified as Cristito Palana Villamor.
“There were two feelers sent. One through a Cabinet official and another through one of my friends but it looks like they’re not really serious in surrendering,” Remulla told reporters in an interview. The Mabasa family, through its spokesperson lawyer Berteni Causing, previously said they doubted the surrender feeler, adding it could be another delaying tactic of Bantag.
