KINUWESTIYON kahapon ni Sen. Grace Poe kung bakit hindi isinama si Transportation Secretary Joseph Emilio Abaya sa mga opisyal na kinasuhan ng Office of the Ombudsman kaugnay ng umano’y maanomalyang $11.5 milyong maintenance contract sa Metro Rail Transit (MRT).
“I would like to read the text of the resolution in full to find out why DOTC Secretary Joseph Emilio Abaya was not included despite having allegedly signed the contract presumably with full knowledge of the facts and the applicable law surrounding such anomalous procurement of services,” sabi ni Poe.
Sa kabila naman ng kanyang duda, niliwanag ni Poe na nirerespeto niya ang desisyon ng Ombudsman.
Sa 39-pahinang resolusyon, kabilang sa mga pinakasuhan ng Ombudsman ay sina dating MRT chief Al Vitangcol at mga opisyal ng Philippine Trans Rail Management and Services Corp. na sina Wilson De Vera, Arturo Soriano, Marlo Dela Cruz, Manolo Maralit, at Federico Remo.
Ibinasura naman ang kasong graft laban kay Abaya.
“This should serve as a severe warning to the current MRT administrators to get their acts together and that ineptness prompted by illegal motives shall be dealt with severely,” dagdag pa ni Poe.
