Sen. Alan Peter Cayetano’s latest “tale spin” attempt on the controversy involving anomalous infrastructure projects and illegal reclamation in Taguig only betrays his panic, Sen. Panfilo “Ping” M. Lacson said Saturday evening.
Lacson, responding to Cayetano’s latest “live selling” on social media, also said Cayetano should name the “individuals” he claimed he “threatened” so he can address the issue directly, adding no amount of spin could make the guilt go away for those involved.
