Trillanes to present 'equally scandalous' info vs Binay

Louis Bacani - The Philippine Star

MANILA, Philippines - Sen. Antonio Trillanes IV will present tomorrow more information and evidence on the corruption allegations hurled against Vice President Jejomar Binay.

"Tomorrow meron kaming mga bagong information na ilalabas in relation sa corrupt activities ni Vice President Binay," Trillanes said in a televised press briefing on Wednesday.

He said the alleged overpricing in the construction of the Makati City Science High School building will be tackled on Thursday's hearing.

Trillanes said documents will be the primary source of the new information to be bared.

"Let's just say it's equally scandalous," Trillanes said.

Binay has been invited by the mother Senate Blue Ribbon Committee to attend tomorrow's hearing on the Makati City Hall II parking building.

Trillanes said they have prepared for Binay's possible attendance. But with or without his presence, the investigation will still proceed, according to the senator.

"What he does or will not do, siya ang accountable doon, si Vice President Binay," Trillanes said. "Kapag hindi siya magpakita, ibig sabihin hindi mo talaga mapagkakatiwalaan itong taong ito."

If Binay does show up tomorrow, Trillanes said they will make sure that he stays for six hours.

"He should have prepared for this," he said.

Trillanes believes that the Senate inquiry into the allegations against Binay could continue until April 2015.
