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.

Sen. Panfilo “Ping” M. Lacson on Friday called out the “impunity” behind the continued illegal reclamation activities at the Taguig Lakeshore area, as shown by a video taken during a multi-agency on-site inspection of the area.
Lacson posted on X a video of the inspection conducted by a joint team from the Office of the Ombudsman, Philippine Reclamation Authority (PRA), Land Registration Authority (LRA), and Department of Public Works and Highways (DPWH).
He also cited information reaching his office indicating that some personalities connected to the Cayetanos of Taguig may have links to the continued impunity.
