Pimentel kampanteng mababasura ang disqualification case laban sa kanya

SINABI ni Sen. Aquilino “Koko” Pimentel III na kampante siyang mababasura ang inihaing disqualification laban sa kanya sa Commission on Elections (Comelec) kaugnay ng kanyang pagtakbong muli sa Senado.

“Lawyers will answer the petition in due time if still required by Comelec. However, Comelec may surprise us by dismissing the petition outright for being a nuisance petition,” sabi ni Pimentel.

Tiniyak naman ni Pimentel na nakahanda siyang sagutin ang kaso para siya madiskwalipika na tumakbo sa pagka-senador sa 2019.

“But in any case, we are ready, and we know the correct answer to this issue. The consti[tution], law, jurisprudence, and the basic concept of fairness are all on our side. Hence we are very very confident that we will prevail,” ayon pa kay Pimentel.
