Harry Roque in 2016 filed an indemnification bill for human rights victims under the martial rule of presidential bet Ferdinand 'Bongbong' Marcos Jr.'s father, dictator Ferdinand Marcos Sr.
MANILA - Senatorial candidate Harry Roque said Monday he did his due diligence by examining the cases of his presidential bet Ferdinand "Bongbong" Marcos Jr and found no evidence linking him to the dictatorship of his father.
"Di po naging diktador si Bongbong Marcos. I have personally examined the cases decided by the Philippine Supreme Court confirming that there’s ill-gotten wealth. There’s no mention of Bongbong Marcos. I've gone though the alien court cases decided by the US Courts awarding millions of damages against the Marcos. Again, Bongbong Marcos was not mentioned," he told ANC's Headstart.
