KIKO TO SC: RECALL TRO

Senator Francis "Kiko" Pangilinan weighs in on the current developments in the case of former President Gloria Arroyo's attempts at leaving the country.

"The COMELEC decision should serve as solid basis for the Supreme Court to recall its restraining order against the Aquino government. The Supreme Court ought to immediately recall the TRO now that cases are to be filed against Arroyo."

Pangilinan adds that now that cases have been filed, the TRO issued by the SC no longer holds water. "Wala nang basehan ang TRO ng Korte Suprema upang payagan pa si Arroyo na umalis ng bansa. Kung umalis pa siya ng bansa matapos ang desisyon ng COMELEC, magiging isang malaking dagok ito sa sistema ng katarungan sa ating bansa."
