A video of Negros Oriental Gov. Roel Degamo telling his wife, Pamplona Mayor Janice Degamo, that the Teves brothers were the “sources of threats” to his life may soon surface. | BPinlacINQ
Janice said the video was taken when she and her husband were bound for Manila in October last year.
“We were really warned – sternly warned – that ‘there is someone waiting for you there, governor,’” she said.“We went to another area, but before we left the house, I took a video and said, ‘If something bad happens to us, this video will come out.’ I showed the camera to him because while I was taking a video of myself speaking, he butt in and said the threats he was receiving were coming from Henry Teves and [Arnolfo] Teves,” she recalled.
When asked about where the slain governor got such information, the Pamplona local chief said her husband was receiving intelligence reports about the threats to his life. The task force investigating the killings, now dubbed the Pamplona massacre, has so far only named Arnolfo as the alleged mastermind.But Roel had notably unseated Henry as provincial governor of Negros Oriental after the Commission on Elections last September annulled the latter’s proclamation as the winner of the 2022 elections.INQUIRER.net has reached out to Arnolfo’s legal counsel to seek a comment from the Teves brothers, but they have yet to respond as of this posting.
