Atty. Ferdinand Topacio, the lawyer of suspended Negros Oriental Representative Arnolfo “Arnie” Teves Jr., on Saturday said his client has made certain requests to ensure his safe return to the country, after being linked to Gov. Roel Degamo slay case.
“I had two interactions with [House] Speaker [Martin] Romualdez, of course the details I cannot divulge because of our gentleman’s agreement. But si congressman made certain requests for his return in order to ensure his safety,” Topacio said at a media forum.
“Ang hiniling lang po niya ay ‘yung requests niya para sa kaniyang kaligtasan. Hindi po for any special treatment, wala pong bargaining dito. Just for his safety,” Topacio added.“Hindi naman niya kami binola. Sinabi niya ‘Itong mga request na ito, pwede nating gawin. Itong mga request na ito ay hindi natin pwedeng gawin,’” he said.
