The Commission on Appointments questioned a military general for not disclosing that he had a previous case over a confiscated carabao. | JEMendozaINQ

“It’s about a carabao that was confiscated by the operating troops of our battalion, but it was not me that was actually involved, but the carabao was entrusted to our detachment, and so after some time, when the NPAs who were caught were set free, I was then a second lieutenant ma’am, and I was told, directed by our battalion, to dispose of that carabao,” Lelina explained.

“But later on, they made a complaint to the Commission on Human Rights, and so I was the one implicated. But our battalion already paid for that …” he further said. “It’s apparent that you were, in fact, not convicted, but you are, in fact, charged, I just wanted to clarify and put it on record.” Lelina is among the 48 officials of the Armed Forces of the Philippines whose ad interim appointments were approved by the CA.Subscribe to our daily newsletter
