“This is a tragedy sa ngalan ng hustisya dito sa ating bansa. Sino ang aasahan mo na mag-apela nitong mga kasong ito? Dahil kasalukuyang nasa administrasyon ‘yung mga taong involved dito,” Coconut Industry Reform Movement adviser Joey Faustino said.
A group of coconut farmers and advocates on Thursday expressed disappointment over the Supreme Court decision junking the graft charges filed against former Senator Juan Ponce Enrile and several other personalities involved in the alleged misuse of the P840 million Coconut Industry Development Fund or coco levy funds.
On Wednesday, the SC released a January 16 promulgation dismissing the complaint filed against Enrile, now the Chief Presidential Legal Counsel, Jose Concepcion, Rolando dela Cuesta, Narciso Pineda, and Danila Urusa due to violation of their right to speedy disposition of cases. According to Faustino, erring personalities should be held liable for how the taxes were used by private entities during the administration of late President Ferdinand Marcos.
