BUKOD kay Negros Oriental Rep. Arnie Teves, sinampahan na rin ng kasong kriminal ng Philippine National Police – Criminal Investigation and Detection Group (PNP-CIDG) ang dalawang anak ng bruskong kongresista.
Ayon kay Justice Secretary Crispin Remulla, kinasuhan ng Illegal Possession of Firearms kaugnay ng serye ng mga patayan sa Negros Oriental noong 2019 sina Kurt Matthew at Axel Teves.
“Cases have been filed for illegal possession of firearms before the DOJ today so we will look at these cases filed against Congressman Teves and his two sons in the service of the warrants… I presume that those warrants were returned to court already but because of due process we have to let it undergo preliminary investigation. We will ask them to answer these charges already filed before the DOJ,” pahayag ni Remulla.
Paglilinaw ng Kalihim, ang search warrant na ginamit sa pagpasok ng mga operatiba sa limang bahay na pinaniniwalaang pag-aari ni Teves ay kaugnay ng mga patayang naganap sa nasabing lalawigan noong 2019.
“The search warrants were issued based on the 2019 killings,” paliwanag ni Remulla.
Pag-amin ng DOJ chief, hindi niya alam kung nasaan ang kongresistang suspek sa likod ng pamamaslang kamakailan kay Negros Oriental Gov. Roel Degamo.
“Wala pa rin specific, there are good ideas on where but there are people whose job is to monitor that – maraming nagmo-monitor dyan I can assure you. I spoke to House Speaker Martin Romualdez yesterday but it is more of a general overview of the whole problem with regards with this case – some of them were of course are personal in nature…it’s between two person that are speculating also…that’s why I cannot divulge,” aniya pa.
Ayon sa DOJ chief, magkakaroon ng linaw sa mga reklamong kinakaharap ni Teves sa mga susunod na araw.
“Meron lang tayong hinahanap na persons of interests. We’re waiting for a few things to happen but I think we will have a more complete picture by the end of this week.”
