Detained Senator Leila de Lima on Friday expressed belief that the circumstances surrounding the death of high-profile inmate Jaybee Sebastian is suspicious since his own wife is also doubtful about it.
De Lima pointed out news reports have shown that Sebastian — a witness in the drug case that was filed against her by the government — went hysterical upon learning of her husband’s death.
The rather unusual reaction of Sebastian’s wife, de Lima said “speaks volume of the dubious circumstances surrounding it.”
“The rather unusual reaction of Sebastian’s wife, which included threats to kill all the NBP officials and personnel responsible for Sebastian’s death, speaks volume of the dubious circumstances surrounding it. Sebastian’s wife must know something about these dubious circumstances to go hysterical and threaten to kill the NBP people,” de Lima said in her latest statement.
“I am also sure she knows a lot about the intense pressure exerted on Sebastian and his family to falsely testify against me during the House Justice Committee hearings on the Bilibid Drug Trade in September and October 2016,” the senator added.
De Lima recalled Sebastian refused to falsely testify before the House Committee until he was stabbed and was almost killed inside the New Bilibid Prison’s (NBP) Building 14 on September 28, 2016.
A few days later, De Lima said Sebastian was brought to the House of Representatives with his stab wounds still fresh, to falsely testify against me.
“Needless to say, Sebastian’s death means one less perjured witness against me,” she said. (Hannah L. Torregoza)
