Senator Antonio Trillanes IV said Friday he would unmask the three justices of the Court of Appeals (CA) who allegedly had received money to stop the suspension of Makati City Mayor Jejomar Erwin 鈥淛un-Jun鈥� Binay.
Trillanes said the names of the justices would be included in a resolution he would file on Monday seeking a Senate inquiry into his own allegation that the family of Vice President Jejomar Binay had bought an injunction from the CA.
The CA issued the TRO on Mayor Binay鈥檚 suspension order by the Office of the Ombudsman in connection with the allegedly anomalous construction of the Makati City Hall 2 parking building.
鈥淭he three justices were paid to issue a TRO /injunction in favor of the Binays,鈥� Trillanes said in Filipino in a text message on Friday.
He said he would also reveal in the resolution the amount of money that the Binays had allegedly paid to get the TRO.
Trillanes said he would also identify other personalities involved in the alleged payoff.
鈥淲ala sana akong planong ilabas itong mga ito, pero dare sila ng dare鈥� (I actually didn鈥檛 plan to bare this in public, but they鈥檇 been daring me),鈥� the senator said of his decision to expose those involved in the said payoff.
The Vice President himself dared Trillanes to file graft and corruption charges against the appellate court justices whom he accused of receiving money in exchange for the TRO. AU
