ENRILE’S RESPONSE: In a privilege speech on Monday, May 25, Senate President Juan Ponce Enrile responded to the “accusations and personal attacks” made against him by Minority Floor Leader, Sen. Aquilino Pimentel, Jr. “If any Senator in this hall can say that I ever dictated how they should vote in the proceedings of the Committee, let them stand up and let the world know who is lying”, Enrile said. He further added that, “the Villar case is not for debate, for the information of the Senator from Cagayan de Oro. The Villar case is for the proper disposition and full hearing in accordance with the Rules to ferret out the truth so that the people will be informed. No dissimulations, no hiding behind technicalities.”
