Witness backtracks on previous testimony, clears Bong Revilla in pork barrel scam

After posting an emotional status on his Facebook account on his 4th year in jail which led to confiscation of his mobile device, Bong Revilla together with his wife Lani Mercado and his supporters rejoiced after whistle blower Marina Sula backtracked on her previous testimony, clearing the former senator’s name from the pork barrel scam on Thursday, June 28.

According to rappler.com, Sula claimed that star witness Benhur Luy forged the former senator’s signature on the documents for Janet Napoles’ NGOs.

Sula said: “Si Benhur, siya ‘yung mahusay pumirma ng lawmakers at siya ‘yung nakikita kong pumipirma para sa lawmakers. Wala pong alam si Senator Revilla sa paggawa po ng endorsement letters.”

In a Facebook post, an emotional Bong and Lani were seen in photos after the former’s name has been cleared out from the scam.

Bong was arrested last 2014 due to plunder and graft cases filed against him.
