NEWS UPDATE| Iniulat ni Department of Justice Spokesperson Atty. Polo Martinez na kasalukuyang nasa hurisdiksyon pa rin ng Czech Republic si former Ako Bicol Party-list Rep. Zaldy Co.

Subalit nilinaw ntong hindi akmang sabihin na ‘naaresto’ ang dating mambabatas sapagkat ‘restrained’ lamang raw ang ‘liberty’ nito.

“To clarify, while he was not technically arrested, his liberty was restrained. For analogy, it’s similar to a situation in the airport where the person arrives and immigration denies entry or excludes the person. Technically, not arrested but there is a deprivation of liberty to a certain degree,” ani DOJ Spokesperson Atty. Polo Martinez.
