The lawyer of Negros Oriental Rep. Arnolfo Teves said he made sure that there would be no deadly weapon at the lawmaker's residence in Quezon City should a raid be conducted in its premises.
In the latest episode of The Mangahas Interviews, Atty. Ferdinand Topacio said Teves' licenses to own and possess firearms were cancelled in January and that he personally went to the nearest police precinct to turn the weapons over for safekeeping. "Ako mismo po ang nag-inspeksyon sa bahay ni Cong. Teves sa Quezon City, ma-satisfy ko lang ang aking sarili na wala pong armas du'n na makukuha nila. Ni balatik, ni chako, ni arnis pinatanggal ko po roon," Topacio told journalist Malou Mangahas.
"Anything that may be misconstrued as a deadly weapon. So kung 'yun ay re-raid-in, hindi galing doon sa loob," he added.He said the same was done by Teves' lawyers in Negros Oriental. Firearms and ammunition were recently confiscated by police when they raided properties belonging to Teves.—NB, GMA Integrated News
