VACC will file plunder case against Benigno Aquino & Janette Garin, for the P3.5-billion dengue vaccine mess?


The Volunteers Against Crime and Corruption (VACC) will file plunder complaints against ranking officials, who may possibly include the former president Benigno Aquino III and the former Health secretary Janette Garin, for the P3.5-billion dengue vaccine mess.

If they filed, it would be the third criminal complaint lodged against the ex-officials for their involvement in the Dengvaxia deal issue.

Lawyer Ferdinand Topacio of the VACC told reporters at a news forum on Saturday that while the list of the respondents has yet to be finalized,then Aquino and Garin are among the "persons of interest."

The complaint will be filed before the Department of Justice in one to two weeks, Topacio said.

“Tapos na po halos lahat ng affidavits ng mga witnesses namin for the plunder case,” he said, adding their evidence is a money trail sniffed out by the National Bureau of Investigation, the details of which he did not disclose.

Topacio also said two other persons of interest have been added to the initial list of names that Dr. Francis Cruz, an ex-consultant of former Health chief Paulyn Ubial, alleged were part of a “mafia”at the Department of Health.

He did not name the new persons of interest, but claimed those involved “go up to the highest levels of governance of the previous administration, meaning the former president and down the line.”

Topacio also said the VACC found other potential violations during the course of its investigation that would be used as grounds for another complaint to be filed next week, but again refused to disclose details.

The former Technical Education and Skills Development Authority and former Iloilo representative Augusto Syjuco Jr. in December sued Aquino and Garin for mass murder and plunder over the vaccine controversy.

A week later, party-list group Gabriela slapped a graft complaint against Aquino and other officials for the said controversy.

The Dengvaxia vaccine and the officials who were involved in its multi-billion purchase and incorporation into the government's dengue immunization program caught attention after manufacturer Sanofi Pasteur released an advisory in November last year, which said the vaccine may worsen dengue in some cases.

Kris Aquino To Critics "Utang Na Loob Niyo Sa Tatay Ko Ang Kalayaan Niyo"

“And the truth is you do owe this man the fact that you have FREEDOM OF SPEECH, FREEDOM OF EXPRESSION & FREEDOM OF THE PRESS TODAY.” Ito ang mga sinabi ni Kris Aquino laban sa mga kritiko ng kanyang pamilya. Ayon pa kay Kris, "may bayag" o matapang daw ang tatay niya dahil handa raw itong mamatay para sa bayan. Kung tinatamasa ng mga Filipino ang kalayaan ngayon, ito ay dahil sa ginawang sakri­pisyo ni dating Senador Benigno ‘Ninoy’ Aquino Jr., ayon sa kanyang bunsong anak na si Kris Aquino. Sa Instagram post ni Kris, binanggit nito na ang kanyang ama ay ‘may bayag’ noong isakripisyo ang kanyang buhay para sa kalayaan ng bansa mula sa diktaduryang Marcos. Tinutukoy ng television host at aktres ang pag-uwi ni Ninoy sa bansa noong Agosto 21, 1983 sa kabila ng babala na may mangyayaring masama sa kanya. Binaril si Ninoy sa tarmac ng Manila International Airport (ngayon ay Ninoy Aquino International Airport). Ang kanyang pagkamatay ang naging mitsa ng pagsiklab...

BIR Slaps Renato Reyes (Bayan) with ₱1.05M Tax Evasion Charges

The Bureau of Internal Revenue (BIR) on Friday filed a ₱1.05 million tax evasion case against Bagong Alyansang Makabayan (Bayan) Secretary General Renato Reyes Jr., for failing to pay his personal income taxes since 2009. BIR legal counsel Atty. Brigido Loyola said Reyes’ failed to file income tax returns especially last year where he made more than ₱5.7 million from three major rallies, including the 2016 Asean Summit where he reportedly earned ₱2.5 million according to court records. Reyes, a career activist, has denied many times earlier that he is not earning a dime from organizing protests and all of his works are in voluntary basis. But Loyola said Reyes family expenses are more than his wife’s salary – who is physician working in a public hospital. From 2009 to 2014, Reyes reportedly filed tax exemptions despite already making decent amount from different protests. “We cannot exempt an individual who is earming at least ₱1.5 million a year,” Loyola said. Tax evasio...
