FRANCISCO S. TATAD
PRESIDENT Rodrigo Duterte’s threat to “destroy” Sen. Antonio Trillanes 4th, for claiming that the President’s vice mayor-son Paolo Duterte might be involved in the illegal drugs traffic from China through the Bureau of Customs, and that he bears on his back the tattoo of a member of the Chinese Triad, may have gotten an initial push when Sen. Richard Gordon filed a complaint against Trillanes before the Senate ethics committee for unparliamentary behavior and demanded a penalty beyond mere censure for DU30’s adversary.
