MANILA - Detained Sen. Leila de Lima has moved to post bail in the second of her 3 drug cases before the Muntinlupa Regional Trial Court.

“The record will show the clear absence of any ‘sufficient admissible’ evidence, much less ‘strong’ evidence, that will support her alleged guilt,” said the senator’s motion electronically filed on Wednesday.

Esmeralda was removed by De Lima in his NBI post while Jimenez was later on appointed head of the Presidential Anti-Corruption Commission . Based on transcripts of testimonies, Tan said Jaybee Sebastian, supposedly ordered by Dayan, instructed him to hand over 2 bags of money to Tony Co. The money was supposedly in exchange for “special requests” such as lavish “kubols” and entry of goods and services like bands, dancers and liquor inside the maximum security compound – none of which involved illegal drugs.Ragos was initially charged but was dropped from the case when the information was amended, having been admitted to the DOJ’s witness protection program.

But De Lima’s lawyers pointed out that Ragos never mentioned this in his original affidavit executed in December 2016 where he also denied any drug dealings inside the NBP or any conspiracy with De Lima. Magalong, a prosecution witness, also testified that they received information that Ragos allegedly received payolas from high profile drug personalities, and went to the extent of calling him “dirty.”
