“Meron kaming training for our watchers. Pinaasok ng mga pulis sa bahay nang walang search warrant. Natural, nagkagulo. Yung mga pulis, naka-tsinelas, hindi naka-uniporme, may mga baril, so natural sumunod kami, tiningnan namin,” he said.
“Pag dating namin, sinabihan naming yung pulis bakit sila nag-trespass. Dumating yung commander nila, si Col. (Alex) Alberto, inaresto kami lahat. Pati ako inaresto. Hindi kami binasahan ng Miranda rights. Basta pinosasan na lang kami. Pati mga pulis ginagamit na ng mga kalaban naming sa pulitika,” he added.
