Lacson claims Palace unleashed 'attack dogs' against him.
(From Philippine Daily Inquirer)
Byline: Christine O. Avendano and Tarra Quismundo
OPPOSITION Sen. Panfilo Lacson yesterday claimed that Malacanang had unleashed "new attack dogs" to preempt or even stop him from uncovering his third expose against First Gentleman Jose Miguel Arroyo.
Lacson made the statement following recent moves against him, including the filing of a second complaint on Monday before the Senate ethics committee by a group called Filipino Lawyers for Good Governance (Filgood).
The senator said these attacks "shifted to high gear" as he prepared to deliver his next round of corruption allegations against Arroyo on the Senate floor when Congress resumes session on Oct. 6.
"I have received information that Malacanang even created a task group which has been meeting thrice a week just to make sure that they can put me behind bars before (then)," Lacson said in a statement.
The senator claimed that lawyer Arno Sanidad was part of the task group.
