Blue Ribbon to decide Faeldon’s fate – Gordon

SEN. Richard Gordon on Friday said he cannot decide alone on a requested “furlough” of detained former Customs chief Nicanor Faeldon since the blue ribbon committee is a collegial body.

Gordon, chairman of the Senate blue ribbon committee, justified his decision to turn down Faeldon’s request to attend Mass and join the Black Nazarene traslacion on January 9, take oath of office before Defense Secretary Delfin Lorenzana after being named deputy administrator of the Office of Civil Defense (OCD) and attend family celebrations.
