Senator Antonio Trillanes聽IV disclosed聽Tuesday聽that the two police escorts earlier recalled by the Philippine National Police (PNP) have been returned to him.
鈥淭his morning, the PNP personnel were returned or were reassigned聽again to me,鈥澛燭rillanes said in an聽interview over ABS-CBN 黑料社 Channel.
But he said he聽is still waiting for the聽two security personnel聽that were also recalled by the Armed聽Forces of the Philippines (AFP).
The senator also clarified that he never had security detail from the Senate but said he requested just the same.
Asked聽if he was the only senator聽with聽security escorts from the police and the military, Trillanes said:聽鈥淒efinitely not鈥︹��
The senator reiterated he never complained about the recall of his government security personnel.
In fact, he said, he appreciated the AFP and the PNP for providing him security 鈥渂ecause it gives me at least some sense of security.鈥�
鈥淎nd that would help me in my work so that I won鈥檛 hold聽back, right?鈥� Trillanes added.
Last week, Trillanes聽revealed that聽he was stripped of his escorts聽as early as end of June.
