Naniniwala si Senator Leila de Lima na lumilinaw na ang kanyang kaso matapos ipahayag ni Ombudsman Conchita Carpio-Morales na ang tanggapan nito ang may hurisdiksiyon sa kaso ng senadora.
“Clearly, these trumped-up charges are nothing but sinister ploys of political persecution to silence me from speaking against the Duterte administration’s murderous war on drugs.
And with the pronouncement of the Ombudsman that her office has jurisdiction over these charges, there is still an opportunity to determine, once and for all, the legitimacy of the proceedings undertaken by the DoJ (Department of Justice) against me,” pahayag ni De Lima. (Leonel M. Abasola)
