Presidential Spokesman Salvador Panelo said the government will question the decision of a Makati City court not to issue a warrant of arrest against Senator Antonio Trillanes IV before the Court of Appeals for a coup d’ etat case.

Panelo said the Office of the Solicitor General will refile the appeal by the Department of Justice which failed to convince Judge Andres Soriano of the Makati Regional Trial Court Branch 148 to reconsider his Oct. 22 decision.

“We are very confident we are going to win this case. Even hostile members of the court cannot dispute evidence that will be presented to them,” Panelo told reporters. “Courts will always rule on the basis of evidence. We feel that our evidence is very strong.”

Panelo is also President Rodrigo Duterte’s chief legal counsel.”‹
