‘I told you so…drug charges are all made up,’ says De Lima
‘I told you so…drug charges are all made up,’ says De Lima
“I TOLD you so,” Senator Leila de Lima said on Wednesday after another witness denied owning a bank account that would allegedly link her to the illegal drug trade.
“Yun nga yun sinasabi ko sa inyo, manufactured ’yan. So saang galing na namang factory of manufactured evidence ’yan; ’yang mga ganyan,” de Lima told reporters.
“I told you already, sawang-sawa na nga ako sa kakaulit, di ba? Sinabihan ko na rin ang Pangulo na mapapahiya talaga s’ya in the end,” she said.
De Lima was reacting to her former employee’s (Jonathan Caranto) claim that he did not own the account at the Bando de Oro branch in Caloocan City, which supposedly contained millions of pesos from drug proceeds.

Earlier, another former employee, Edna “Bogs” Obuyes, also denied owning a bank account that would also allegedly link the senator to illegal drugs. Caranto and Obuyes are employees at the Department of Justice and they worked for de Lima when the latter was still the justice chief.
This, De Lima said, only showed that the charges against her were all fabricated. No less than President Rodrigo Duterte had dragged her into the drug mess.
“Ako pagod na. Pagod na ako kaka-deny. Pagod na ako kaya ayaw ko nang nakikinig, ayaw ko nang nagre-respond, nagre-react dahil puro naman talaga kasinungalingan yan,” she said.
Asked if she is expecting more exposés against her, the senator said: “Hindi ko alam. Hindi ko po talaga alam. Hintayin na lang natin ang susunod na kabanata.”
