But not so for Paul Gutierrez and Benny Antiporda, members of the National Press Club who were former media practitioners who got government appointments under Duterte. Both were called on Thursday, November 7, to appear before the House quad committee because they allegedly threatened a whistleblower not to name any members of the Duterte family in a tell-all testimony.
Acierto is a former anti-drug police operative who has openly accused Yang of being part of the drug trade. He is in hiding and evading the warrant of arrest issued over the smuggled shabu case, for which Guban has been convicted. Guban turned emotional on Thursday as he and Acierto told the committee that some of their colleagues involved in the same operation have either been killed or gone missing.
Antiporda, a former newspaper reporter turned environment undersecretary under Duterte, also denied it.
