Maj. Gen. John Martir, whose two -star rank remains unconfirmed by the Commission on Appointments, finally showed up at last Friday’s court martial hearing of the mutiny case against 28 officers in connection with something that did not happen in February 2006.
This was the time when the people, including men in uniform, were restive about the revelations of massive cheating in the 2004 elections in favor of Gloria Arroyo using military and police officers and personnel.
It was the start of his cross examination which should have been last May 26 but Martir was a no-show giving the excuse that he was on a “confidential mission.”
