Esperon to hide from Trillanes in hearings |
|
By Anthony Vargas Reporter
ARMED Forces chief General
Hermogenes Esperon Jr. has found a way of avoiding a confrontation
with Senator-elect Antonio Trillanes IV, who is raring to grill him
at a Senate hearing in connection with the “Hello, Garci”
controversy, election fraud, extrajudicial killings, among other
issues.
Esperon said on Tuesday that he
could use Malacañang’s controversial gag order, Executive Order (EO)
464, to avoid Senate hearings.
