Sen. Antonio Trillanes IV yesterday asked Makati Judge Oscar Pimentel to allow him to attend the opening session of the Senate on July 26.
Trillanes’ lawyer Reynaldo Robles also asked that Trillanes be allowed to take lunch with Senate colleagues within the premises of the Senate at the GSIS Financial Complex on Roxas boulevard, Pasay City.
Trillanes said he will abide with the security considerations of his custodian.
Trillanes is detained at the PNP Custodial Center at Camp Crame, Quezon City, in connection with his involvement in the short-lived Oakwood mutiny in 2003.
He was elected senator in the 2007 mid-term election despite campaigning behind bars and with little resources at his disposal.
In November 2007, Trillanes, former Scout Ranger regiment commander Brig. Gen. Danilo Lim led a handful of Magdalo soldiers and civilian supporters in yet another stand-off at the Manila Peninsula to call for the resignation of President Arroyo.
A rebellion case in connection with the 2007 incident was filed against Trillanes and Lim before Makati City Judge Elmo Alameda. – Ashzel Hachero
Following the wordings of the President P-NOY,” Kayo ang BOSS KO, or the electorates who voted him to became president ( almost 15 million votes ), similarly, Senator Antonio Trillanes got almost 11-million votes, having the same BOSS,” ang masang Pilipino “, nagtiwala sa pagbabago sa gobyerno ng Pilipinas, The Senator should be given a chance to attend the Senate Opening. The GMA regime jailed him, as senator for 3-years (2007-2010 ), the remaining 3-years should let him free, to attend in the senate hall for the good of the country and in fairness to the electorates ( the Boss ). His guilt was only to correct the GMA admin in dealing with the corrupt practices in the military, and in the government. He was not even proven guilty ( only being detained ). His righteous military attitudes-characters brought him into complications against
the unrighteous higher command of leadership where he was
posted ( a victim of wrong timing,with wrong leadership ). He had shown coolness, law abiding citizen, and excellent leadership that the country is needed.
President P-Noy and the proper forum of law, under the Makati City Judge Elmo Alameda, should find a way for
Senator Antonio trillanes to serve finally the whole nation,
the Filipino people, the real BOSS ( the power where the
cause of government begins ).
Ibigay kay Sen. Trillanes lahat ng resonableng kahilingan! Namputsa, pag-uusapan na naman ba yan? Kung kami ang boss, dapat masunod ang aming mga boses na paos ng magsisigaw para pagsilbihan ni Sen. Sonny.
Ako, tiyak na sa kapakanan ng kanyang mga bossing ang gagawin ng Senador kung bibigyan ng pagkakataon. Palayain na sya!
Dapat bigyan ng kaluwagan o clemency si Trillanes para makapagtrabaho sa Senado. Since si P-Nyoy na ang Commander-in-Chief, hindi ba pangit kung bibigyan siya ng ‘Pardon’?
trillianes’s lawyer is a sibling of LRTA Mel Robles, a gma ally who has questionable reputation
You can’t pardon someone who hasn’t been convicted yet. The more prudent thing is for the Trilanes camp to petition the Court for a review of the case. The judge handling it might finally see the ‘light’ in the new dispensation. Or the government prosecutors might be ‘persuaded’ to drop the case altogether but they should not do it in such a way na garapalan otherwise it would run counter to Noy’s pronouncement of fair justice for all. 🙂
Trillianes can be under the custody of the Senate. He is not yet convicted. He WAS just one of the political prisoner’s of the midget.
Kung gusto nya umattend, he can ask the court to allow him. Court lang ang pwedeng magdecide at hindi mag object ang prosecution.
Sana naman kung payagan syang umattend, wala ng “sideshow”, detention to batasan to detention ang route.
Pagnagkataon, magkikita sila ni Arroyo sa Batasan!
Why not let him attend the Senate hearing? Ibinoto siya ng mga tao.
Wala na si never president gloria dorobo, meron pabang dahilan ang mga government prosecutors upang ituloy ang kaso laban kay Sen Trillanes? Charges invented just to evade the “gentlemen’s agreement” entered into by then Gen Cimatu?
Natanggal na rin ‘yung alomranas na tumakbong kotongreaseman subalit nilampaso’t parang taeng nilangaw na maging sa kanya mismong kapitbahayan ay iisa lang ‘ata ang bumoto. Puwede ba? Pakawalan na si Sen Trillanes?
Ano pa ba ang inaalala nila? ‘Yung maglulupasay sa lupa ang moled spoiled dwarf na si gloria?
Pamparami din ng boto kay Villar yan for Senate President pag naka attend.

So true. Pardon is only given to the guilty ones, of he is innocent, there’s no need for it, the charges will be dropped…sorry, mabigat naging kalaban mo dati kasi…etc, etc…
I really hope Sen Trillanes would be allowed to attend the opening session of the Congress. I see nothing wrong with that.
Re # 10. Are you sure he’d be voting for Villar? I’ve heard otherwise. You’d be surprised.
re # 12. He endorsed the presidency of Villar during the elections. Is there a sudden turn-around?
There’s no turn-around. The Magdalo’s support for Villar was only for the May elections. Tapos na yun.

I was so disappointed all that time, but deep inside I really hoped it was just temporary…and things will change…and they did…
Bakit kailangang pangunahan si Sen Trillanes kung kanino boboto sa pagpili ng senate president gayung wala pang desisyon ang korte kung papayagan siyang maka-attend ng senate sessions?
Paboran man ng korte o hindi ang kanyang kahilingan, mismong sa oras na ng botohan malalaman kung kanino siya papanig.
dapat Sen. Trillanes should be allowed to serve his bosses at ating marinig ang kanyang voices….sa tingin ko kasi like Noynoy ang mga tao na bumoboto sa kanya ang kanyang boss…let him work and serve! I would like to see him participate sa Senate investigation kay putot..at doon sa investigation kina Abalos and Neri at si Tabbaboy! kung hindi mamimilibit si Neri at baka siya pa ay mapa…sa tipo ni Trillanes…ay ambot lang…may kalaban sa pagtingin ko kay Trillanes si O my Gal, so very..sana i televise….
I was wondering, nakakulong sya pero sya yung pangalawa sa senate na pinakamarami “daw” na budget na nagasta…Is this true?
Quickwitted, that issue has long been answered by Sen. Trillanes. Very simple lang.
I’m not sure if he was the one who spent the most but I think it has something to do with travel expenses.
Even if Sen. Trillanes is detained,he is performing his duties as senator. He has an office that does a lot of work to make him fullfill his legislative duties. He has a lot of projects all over the country, not only in aid of legislation, but also public service. That’s where he spent the budget allocated to him.
You can see his projects and accomplishments in his website: http://trillanes.com.ph/
Matagal ng isyu ‘yang overspending daw ni Sen Trillanes, ah?
Wala na si goyang, hanggang ngayon ba naman meron pang nang-iintriga upang maitago ‘yung walang habas na paglulustay ng salapi ng isang never elected pero umastang president?
Sa halip na intrigahin, upang malantad ang mga naging programa ng nakadetineng senador, bakit hindi tulungang kumbinsihin ang korte at payagang gamapanan ang kanyang tungkulin bilang halal na mambabatas sa mataas na kapulungan ng konggreso?
Please naman, magkaisa na. Wala na si gloria. Wala ng bounties na iaalok upang mag-espiya sa kumokontra sa kanya. Hayaan na lamang ‘yung naging katangahan ng mga bumoto sa bruhang ‘yun bilang kinawatan ng ikalawang distrito ng Pampanga.
Sumulong na tayo para sa pagkakaisa at pagbabago at huwag manatili sa paatras na ugaling paghihilahang magbubulid sa kumunoy ng pagkakawatak watak at paghihikahos.
maybe Sen Trillanes should give an accounting of his expenses to put this issue to rest
sychitpin,
Matagal nang sinagot ‘yan. Mismong ang senate finance committee nga ay walang pinalabas na pagpapatawag ng probe kaya nakakapagtaka kung bakit hanggang ngayon ay hindi pa maisara ang tungkol sa overspending daw na ‘yan.
In his three years as a lawmaker, Senator Trillanes has authored and co-authored a lot of bills that were eventually made into laws. Additionally, he’s got a lot of projects accomplished. Partida, nakakulong pa yan. Yung iba nga malaya and all, walang naipasang batas.
Ano ba kasalanan ni sen trillanes sa bayan? ang alam ko lang binulgar nya ang anomalya sa AFP at di nya sinuportahan ang administrasyon ng pekeng presidente so judge pimentel wag ka nang magpakipot kasi sa isang sigundong tumatagal si sen. trillanes sa kulungan e bayan ang nagdurusa kasi sa totoo lng marami dyang dpat makulong na nakakalaya sa ngayon. Magbabanggit nko ha GMA FG jocjoc garciliano abalos etc.
aislinn,
Mas marami ‘atang nagawa si Lito Lapid.
Maraming oras ang nagawa niyang itulog.
^^ In fairness kay Lito Lapid he authored/co-authored a number of bills that were made into law. Of course we all know he didn’t actually pen the bills himself. But just the same, he has accomplishments. Nevertheless, that doesn’t make him deserving of his current position.
aislinn,
Being elected as a lawmaker, the likes of Lito Lapid should have his own brain do the thinking not others’ in crafting laws/bills to be passed.
Ibig sabihin, pork barrel lamang talaga ang habol niya kaya nasa senado siya, di ba? Pampagulo din sa sistema upang magkaroon ng representasyon at dagdag na kakampi ang kabalen niyang timawa sa kasinungalingang si gloria.
Another thing, aislinn.
Kung totoong merong mga naipasang bills si Lito Lapid, how was he able to defend them in the plenary?
Hindi kaya ‘yung kanyang legal assistant ang humarap at idiniskas ang mga probisyon ng mga batas na ‘yun?
Onli in da Pilipayns, talaga!
