Akbayan Senator Risa Hontiveros on the cases filed by Aguirre's VACC

Hindi ito dapat bigyan ng katiting na halaga at pansin ng publiko.

The cases filed by Justice Secretary Vitaliano Aguirre's group, the Volunteers Against Crime and Corruption (VACC), before the Office of the Ombudsman is a desperate attempt to deflect public attention away from their text conversation inadverdently captured by someone's camera lens, which caught them red-handed plotting against me during a Senate hearing inside the Senate.

This confirms the conspiracy hatched by Secretary Aguirre and his VACC to "expedite" the filing of cases against me. It also confirms that the "Cong. Jing" whom Secretary Aguirre was texting was former Representative Jacinto Paras.

Bistong-bisto na, buking na buking na, nagpapalusot pa. Nais pa magtago sa likod ng mga walang batayang kaso.

Hindi ito dapat pag-aksayahan ng panahon at pansin ng mamamayan. We will not be distracted. Tuloy ang ating kampanya para sa katarungan at para panagutin si Secretary Aguirre at pagbitiwin siya sa kanyang puwesto.
