Teves camp's bid to DOJ inhibit denied
By J.Lo
"Also, as side note, ombudsman is not main court where murder cases are tried…in this case, where 10 people were killed, it's best to hear it at DOJ because we have prosecutors of highest caliber who are very capable and willing to try these cases…and so jurisdiction is clearly here in DOJ," Department of Justice (DOJ)spokesman Mico Clavano told reporters suspended Negros Oriental Rep. Arnolfo Teves Jr. has failed in his bid to have his murder charges over assassination of governor Roel Degamo heard at Office of Ombudsman after panel of prosecutors denied his motion to inhibit DOJ from case.
Stressing that they remain independent and impartial, panel of prosecutors would continue conducting preliminary investigation into the case as it has not violated rules of court in terms of due process and since Teves and gunmen's camps have admitted they have no qualms against panel of prosecutors.
Teves last week asked DOJ to inhibit from Pamplona Massacre case, citing pronouncements of Justice Secretary Jesus CrispinRemulla against him that pose risks of supposed partiality in DOJ's probe.
Andres Manuel, part of Teves' legal team, have no qualms against panel of prosecutors but would push through with their next steps to take case away from DOJ.
"Our counter here earlier is that our motion for inhibition is not directed towards panel but to whole DOJ that Congressman Teves views as unfair and not impartial in hearing cases against him," he told reporters.
He said they sought document of resolution denying their motion to map their next steps, including possible motion for reconsideration or elevating it to another tribunal.
Next preliminary investigation is scheduled on Monday, where National Bureau of Investigation is expected to submit additional documents.
Meanwhile, accused gunmen Joven Javier, Dahniel Lora, Romel Pattaguan, Jhudiel Rivero and Rogelio Antipolo Jr. have reaffirmed their affidavits of recantation before panel, their lawyer Russel Miraflor told reporters.
Rest of gunmen Winrich Isturis, John Louie Gonyon, Eulogio Gonyon Jr., Joric Labrador and Benjie Rodriguez are expected to execute their affidavits of recantation on Monday, Manuel and Miraflor said. Marvin Miranda, alleged ringleader of the group, never cooperated with authorities.
Miraflor also filed motion to suppress evidence that his clients intimated to DOJ prior to their recantation as deterrent to DOJ's plans to use in court statements implicating Teves as mastermind despite recantations.
