Hontiveros also called on the Malacañang to augment its efforts in safeguarding journalists and urge them to continue truth-telling. While expressing hopes for a smooth and fair sailing case, Hontiveros said the interests of Mabasa’s family – who remain rooted in their quest for justice – must be upheld throughout the process.
