Defense, hiniling na makita ang 'notes' ni NBI Matibag; Sen. Escudero, hindi pumayag — GMA News

[0:00] Your Honor, can we ask permission to scan the whole notebook, Your Honor? [0:06] Or at least the salient portions of the notebook, Your Honor? [0:10] To look at it, to scan it, to see that even... [0:14] Baka may mga nakasulat na iba dyan na wala nang kinalaman. [0:17] Just to confirm that it is indeed his notes with respect... [0:20] What is the book you are referring to or notebook you are referring to, Attorney Matibag? [0:25] Mr. Presiding Officer, actually, diary kumuto at saka notes, eh. [0:29] Combination. So, kung makikita naman po, wala pa noon. [0:31] Iba't iba pong nakasulat dito, may mga personal po, may mga usapin. [0:37] Ito lamang pong notes ko na to, nakatoon dun sa date kung saan po nagkaroon na ng investigation po yung administrative order number 11. [0:45] Then just the salient portions of the... [0:47] Your Honor, just for the record, we would like to invoke the right of the witness to refer to his notes [0:53] because that note pertains to investigation notes which were prepared, done, written [1:00] at the time of the investigation, Your Honor. [1:02] That is to refresh his memory, Your Honor. [1:05] No, the presiding officer already allowed it. [1:07] Counsel for the respondent, your assisting counsel is there. [1:11] Without necessarily scanning the whole notebook, which might contain other confidential or perhaps personal information, [1:19] He may observe what the witness is referring to, and you may make your observations known to the record [1:28] should he observe something out of the ordinary. [1:32] Witness, may answer? [1:33] Your Honor, ang timestamp po dun sa sinabi kong gusto kong tanggalin yung ulo niya ba is from 135.57 to 136.10 po. [1:44] Your Honor, may we request that the video of the Vice President on October 18, 2024 during her press conference [1:55] previously marked as P-411, particularly timestamp 135.57 to 136.10 be played, Your Honor. [2:06] Has the USB seal been broken by the witness? [2:15] If not, witness is instructed to kindly break the seal of the marked evidence in full view of the assisting counsels for the parties thereafter [2:26] for the USB to be brought to the tech booth, and the Clerk of Court is instructed to have it played [2:34] with respect to the identified timestamps of Director Matibag. [2:38] Anggalin yung ulo niya ba? [3:39] Mr. Witness, napanood mo ang video. [3:49] The video is still playing, I believe, lead prosecutor. Unless you want it cut already. [3:57] It may be cut, Your Honor. [3:59] I'm sorry? Do you want... [4:00] It may be cut, Your Honor. [4:02] The timestamp is only 135.57 to 136.10. [4:10] Mr. Witness, napanood mo ang video? [4:13] Ano ang kaugnayan nito sa insidente yung tinukoy mo kanina [4:17] kung saan sinabi ng vice-presidente, gusto kong tanggalin ang ulo niya ba? [4:23] That is the same video that I was referring to. [4:27] Kanina, Mr. Witness, binanggit mo din na may sinabi ang vice-presidente, [4:32] I imagine myself cutting his head. [4:37] Anong partikular na bahagi naman ng video na iyong tinukoy [4:41] ang tumutukoy sa sinabing ito ng vice-presidente kung iyong nalalaman? [4:47] Again, Mr. Presiding Officer may be allowed to look for the... [4:52] Witness may do so. [4:54] Thank you po. [4:55] Timestamp 136.52 po to timestamp 136.58. [5:02] Your Honor, may we request that the same video be played, [5:06] particularly timestamp 136.52 to 136.58. [5:12] Pertaining to the same exhibit council? [5:14] Yes, Your Honor. Same exhibit P411. [5:17] Tech is instructed through the clerk of court to kindly play the video. [5:21] I imagine myself cutting his head. [5:30] Mr. Witness, napanood mo ang video. [5:32] Ano ang kaugnayan nito sa insidente yung tinukoy mo kanina [5:36] kung saan sinabi ng vice-presidente, [5:38] I imagine myself cutting his head. [5:41] Yan din po yung video ang aking tinutukoy. [5:44] Mr. Witness, kanina ay binanggit mo ang insidente [5:48] ng Mayor Sebastian Duterte. [5:51] Kaninong ulo ang kailangan nila kung iyong nalalaman? [5:58] Jickson, as an answer, Your Honor. [6:00] As an answer, move on, counsel. [6:03] Binanggit mo din ang video ni Vice President Sarah Duterte. [6:10] Mr. Witness, kaninong ulo ang gustong tanggalin? [6:14] Jickson, as an answer, Your Honor. [6:17] Move on, counsel. [6:18] As an answer, the court understands and knows who said [6:21] the Vice President was referring to in that video. [6:24] Thank you, Your Honor. [6:25] We will proceed. [6:27] Ano ang obserbasyon mo dito sa video ni Mayor Sebastian Duterte [6:33] at sa video ni Vice President Sarah Duterte, [6:37] kaugnay ng imbestigasyon ng Special Task Force kung mayroon man? [6:42] Objection vague, Your Honor. [6:43] Ano ang obserbasyon mo? [6:44] Kindly be more specific, counsel. [6:48] Although the witness is competent, [6:50] kindly be more specific so that the witness [6:52] can more intelligently answer the question. [6:55] Mr. Witness, anong koneksyon kung mayroon man [6:59] ang video ni Mayor Sebastian Duterte [7:02] at ang video ni Vice President Sarah Duterte [7:06] sa kasalukuyang imbestigasyon ng Special Task Force? [7:10] Kung mayroon man at kung iyong nalalaman. [7:13] Objection, Your Honor. [7:13] Are still vague and as unanswered? [7:16] Witness may answer if he knows that we can move on. [7:19] Director Matibag, kindly respond. [7:21] Thank you. [7:22] Kapansin-pansin po na makikita natin [7:26] na nanggagaling sa isang pamilya [7:28] ang pagbabanta sa ating Pangulo [7:29] at parehas na nag-refer sa ulo ng Pangulo. [7:34] Kung kaya naman, [7:35] iniisip po ba namin kung mayroon bang kasabwat [7:38] o may sabwatan sa pangyayaring ito [7:40] sapagkat gaya po ng aking binanggit [7:42] na noong November 23, [7:45] binanggit po ng ating BPC Presidente [7:47] na mayroon na siyang kinausap [7:49] para pumatay sa ating Pangulo [7:51] at pumayag siya. [7:53] Kaya ito po ang aming tinututukan [7:55] sa task force na aming tinatag. [7:57] Objection, Your Honor. [7:58] We would have to object as to [8:01] the answer being non-responsive [8:04] and we would like to move, [8:07] Your Honor, that it be expunged [8:08] from the records. [8:09] Your Honor, the witness [8:10] has answered already [8:12] and that should form part [8:13] of the transcript [8:14] of our trial today. [8:17] Then we move to strike it off, Your Honor. [8:18] The objection is overruled [8:20] and the motion to strike is denied. [8:22] Let it remain in the records [8:23] for the appreciation [8:24] of the senator judges [8:25] as to the weight they will give [8:27] that particular part [8:30] of the witness's testimony. [8:32] We will submit, Your Honor.
