“Ang importante may representative siya dahil preliminary investigation pa naman ito,” Balisong continued.
Balisong also made the assurance that he and the members of Bantag’s legal team will appear on the preliminary investigation once they got the subpoena. “This is my commitment, once we get the subpoena, I will surely be appearing, whether or not we will submit the counter affidavit I will make that manifestation before the members of the prosecuting panel,” he pointed out.
A member of the Department of Justice prosecution panel that is handling Bantag’s case said on Tuesday that they have served the subpoena in Bantag’s address in Caloocan. However, the village chief there confirmed that he has not been around in the area since he became the BuCor chief. Bantag’s failure to comply with the subpoena will be considered as a waiver to present his defense in the preliminary investigation and the case shall be considered submitted for resolution, according to the DOJ’s panel of prosecutors.
