PNoy confirms receiving letter from Napoles

  • 5 years ago
President Aquino confirmed that alleged pork barrel scam mastermind Janet Lim Napoles sent him a letter last year, insisting on her innocence. The President said he promptly turned over the letter -- which he described as self-serving -- to Justice Secretary Leila de Lima. He also directed the press to ask Senator Jinggoy Estrada about retired general Rodolfo Diaz, who was mentioned in Napoles' letter. Aquino stressed it was unlikely he had any dealings with Napoles while he was still in Congress. ANC Dateline Philippines, June 5, 2014
