Aquino: Alternate version may be totally false

President Benigno Aquino 3rd on Monday clarified he did not say that the “alternative version” of the infamous Mamasapano incident was the truth.

“Gusto kong idiin, hindi kami nagsasabi nitong alternative version ay sigurado na kaming ito ang totoo. Hindi namin sinasabi na . . . We are not discounting the possibility na baka totally false ‘yung alternative version [I’d like to emphasize, we never said that we’re sure that the alternative version is true. We are not discounting the possibility that it could also be totally false],” Aquino said in Iloilo City.
