Kapunan no longer Atong Ang’s legal counsel

LAWYER Lorna Kapunan has reportedly withdrawn as the defense lawyer of businessman Atong Ang.

Reports said Kapunan would want to focus on her role in the impeachment trial of Vice President Sara Duterte, where she is one of the private prosecutors assisting the House of Representatives’ prosecution team in the Senate.

Ang’s new legal counsel is the Rondain and Mendiola Law Firm.

Kapunan previously represented Ang in connection with the case involving missing sabungeros.

Ang has been tagged as the alleged mastermind behind the disappearances, based on the testimony of his former employee, Julie Patidongan, also known as “Totoy.”
