Inter-Parliamentary Union inquiry into Trillanes treatment by Ph government should be IGNORED

The presumptuous nature of a reported plan by the Geneva-based Inter-Parliamentary Union (IPU) to investigate the Philippine government’s management of the case against “senator” Antonio Trillanes should not be taken sitting down.

The group noted Trillanes showed photos and videos of him filing his amnesty in 2014, “debunking the President’s claim.” It also said that “Filipino parliamentary authorities have not responded to IPU requests for information and to its concerns.”

First of all, photos and videos don’t constitute evidence that will be admissible in any decent court. Second, the Philippine government is under no obligation to respond to inquires originating from a foreign organisation into its internal affairs.

The ICU should butt out of Philippine internal affairs and the Yellowtards who encourage this intervention called out as traitors.
