Senators thumb down Teves’ appeal to virtually join Senate probe on Degamo killing. | ManilaBulletin
Senate Majority Leader Joel Villanueva told the committee that his friends had told him that they saw Teves eating at Lotte Hotel in South Korea about two days ago.
After the killing of Degamo, House leaders asked Teves to return to the Philippines from the United States where he had a medical problem attended to. The solon left the country last Feb. 28 and was supposed to be back home on March 9, as per the travel clearance issued to him by the House of Representatives.
‘’We can only wish that this is only a bad dream and everything will be alright when we wake up. But we have to face the truth that our loved ones are lost forever," Dela Rosa said. ‘’When the news came out that Governor Degamo, along with several civilians, had been mercilessly gunned down while he was in the middle of distributing provisions to his constituents, it came as a cruel shock to all of us. He was killed in the line of duty—serving the people,’’ he pointed out.
‘’The spate of killings of several other political leaders and local government officials months prior, should have served as a warning to Governor Degamo to hide and fear for his own life. But he didn’t. He continued his life of public service until his last breath,’’ he added.
