MINALIIT ng Palasyo ang ginawang pagbawi ni Kerwin Espinosa sa kanyang pahayag na nag-uugnay kay Sen. Leila de Lima sa ilegal na droga.
“While Kerwin Espinosa appears to have recanted his allegations against Senator Leila de Lima, his recantation will not have any effect on the pending criminal cases against the lady senator,” sabi ni Acting presidential spokesperson Martin Andanar.
Naunang sinabi n Espinosa na pinilit lamang siyang idiin si de Lima sa droga.
“We have to underscore what the Prosecutor General said — Mr. Espinosa is not a state witness,” giit naman ni Andanar.
