Former senator Leila de Lima is over the moon after she was cleared of two of three drug cases filed against her during the Duterte administration. But, she said, the fight for justice is far from over. | BPinlacINQ
“I am, of course, happy that with this second acquittal in the three cases filed against me, my release from more than six years of persecution draws nearer. I am extremely grateful to all those who stood by and prayed for me all these years,” de Lima said.
“Hindi ninyo ako iniwan. Hindi ninyo ako pinabayaan. Maraming salamat sa inyong paninindigan na balang araw ay makakamit ko ang katarungan, lalaya, at makakasama kayong muli,” de Lima said.The embattled former lawmaker, however, lamented losing the chance of seeing some family members and friends ever again in the six years that she is incarcerated at the custodial center of the Philippine National Police in Camp Crame, Quezon City.
“Ito marahil ang pinakamasakit na nangyari sa panggigipit sa akin. Gayunpaman, itinuring ko itong pagsubok sa tatag ng aking loob at lalim ng aking pananampalataya sa Panginoon,” she said. De Lima has been in detention since February 2017 – shortly after seeking a Senate investigation into former President Duterte’s brutal “drug war.”
