LACSON DISOWNS T-SHIRTS DISTRIBUTED IN MANDALUYONG CITY

Opposition Sen. Panfilo M. Lacson disowned Tuesday yellow T-shirts reportedly being distributed in Mandaluyong City in time for an anti-Charter change rally in Makati City on Friday.

Lacson branded the distribution of the shirts, which he said bore images of a clenched fist - his campaign logo in 2004 - as a possible attempt to sabotage Friday's rally.

"While I am attending the anti-Chacha rally on Friday, I have not imposed a supposed dress code on my supporters, much less wear such shirts," he said.

He said he suspects the distribution of shirts at Addition Hills village in Mandaluyong City last Friday may be meant to disrupt the rally, and pin the blame on him.

"Those wearing the shirts may make trouble during a protest action so I will be blamed as a destabilizer. To whoever is behind this, your style is as rotten as this administration. I am exposing this now just so people will be aware of your dirty tricks," he said.
