House Speaker Martin Romualdez has called on Negros Oriental Rep. Arnolfo Teves Jr. to return to the country as soon as possible and face the allegations linking him to the assassination of his political nemesis, Governor Roel Degamo. | BPinlacINQ
“Makabubuti rin na umuwi si Cong. Arnie para harapin ang pagkakadawit ng pangalan ng kanilang pamilya sa pagkamatay ni Gov. Roel Degamo,” Romualdez said in a statement on Friday.
He then noted that Teves’s authority to travel only covers Tuesday, February 28, to Thursday, February 9, which means he is no longer allowed by the lower chamber to be outside the country beyond the said period. “We all want to hear his side of the story,” Romualdez said. “Maraming buhay ang nawala maliban kay Gov. Degamo. Umamin na ang mga nahuling salarin sa partisipasyon nila sa krimen. Hindi titigil ang pamahalaan para kilalanin at papanagutin ang mga nasa likod ng brutal na krimeng ito.”
Teves and five others also face multiple charges over a series of killings in various parts of Negros Oriental in 2019.
