Sen. Jinggoy holds press briefing after Sandiganbayan issues arrest warrant over plunder case

[17:52] Thank you very much. [18:51] I will not yield to threats. I will not be intimidated. I will not be pressured into surrendering my independence of judgment. [19:07] I am giving instructions to the Senate Secretary to put on hold personal compassion to upang ipakita sa sambayan ng Pilipino na wala akong intensyon makinabang sa pondo ng bayan habang nililinis ko ang aking pangalan. [19:28] At higit sa lahat, hindi ako papas sa ilalim ng kustodya ng Senado. I will not seek Senate custody. [19:40] Hindi ko gagamitin ang Senado bilang panangga laban sa mga aligasyon sa akin. [19:46] Nakahanda akong ipagtanggol ang aking sarili sa hukuman at hindi ako magtatago sa likod ng institusyon ito upang umiwas sa proseso. [19:57] Ipagtatanggol ko hanggang suhuli ang aking sarili para patunayan na walang batayan ang mga paratang sa akin. [20:09] Kalokohan ang lahat na ito. [20:12] Minisabi sa ambudsman na wala silang anuman dokumento o record na nagpapakita na ako ay nagpasok ng anuman insertion sa 2025 national budget. [20:31] Ang mahalagang impormasyon na ito ay kinilala pa mismo ni dating Sen. Blue Ribbon Chairman Sen. Panfilo Lacson bilang isang makabuluhang ebidensya na sumasalungat sa mga aligasyon binabato laban sa akin. [20:48] So how can the office of the embouchment file plunder against me? [20:54] Ngayon ko lang po isa sa publiko ito. Maraming beses po ako inalok na talikuran ang independent majority block kapalit ang pagbabasura sa aking kaso. [21:20] Ngunit hindi ko po ito tinanggap. [21:24] Mas nanaig ang paninindigan ko na ako ay manatili sa hanay ng mga kasamahan ko sa independent majority block. [21:35] I stand my ground. Ngayon ko taturin ninyo kung sino sila, abangan ninyo ang susunod na kabanata. [21:47] I stand my ground because what is at stake here goes far beyond my personal circumstances. [21:53] What is at stake here is the independence of the Senate. [21:59] This institution must never become vulnerable to external pressure. [22:03] It must remain free from political coercion, free from undue influence, [22:11] and free from any scheme designed to weaken its constitutional role as a co-equal and independent branch of government. [22:22] If this is the price I must pay for the decisions I have made and the principles I have chosen to uphold, [22:28] then I am prepared to face the consequences, however difficult they may be, especially for my family. [22:39] I will not be broken by accusations, nor will I yield to political pressure. [22:44] I will meet these charges head-on, defend my honor through due process, and place my faith in the truth. [22:52] I will be proceeding now to the CIDG to voluntarily surrender myself. [22:58] Marami salamat po. [22:59] Marami salamat po. [24:41] , [24:49] , [24:55] . [25:02] . [25:58] . [25:59] Sir.
