Duterte: Trillanes behind “Bikoy Video”

DAVAO CITY — President Rodrigo Duterte on Sunday revealed, former senator Antonio Trillanes IV manipulates events, citing intelligence reports pin him down as the producer of the Bikoy videos.

While visiting the tomb of his parents in Davao City Friday, the President watched a video featuring a man who claims to be Joseph Advincula, brother of Peter Advincula. Peter was known as “Bikoy.”

After watching the video, Duterte told reporters that Trillanes cannot claim ignorance because he has intelligence reports pointing to the former senator as the one behind the ‘Bikoy’ videos.

“However you manipulate events … truth will always prevail,” Duterte emphazised , he added that Trillanes and the Magdalo Group are behind the videos.

“’Yang independent intelligence… hindi lang naman sila lang ang meron, eh presidente ako so I have also access. Alam man namin ‘yan na s’ya.”

Trillanes is facing charges on conspiracy to commit sedition because of the “Ang Totoong Narcolist” videos.

Senator Christopher Lawrence “Bong” Go also said in a previous interview that Trillanes was the one behind the ‘Bikoy’ videos because the production of the materials is obviously well-funded and cannot be done by Advincula. The videos appeared to be made by professionals, he added. -ezc/NewsLIne
