Solicitor General Jardeleza was
questioned by JBC on Philippines Spratly Claims case handling against China to
the Nations arbitral tribunal when it was scrutinize by the members of JBC
(Judicial and Bar Council).
The ranking government sources
said that in its separate interviews this was due to “integrity issue” which
was raised by Jardeleza.
Our sources learned that Sol-Gen.
Jardelaza directed the international lawyers of the Philippines to delete
fourteen paragraphs that discuss Itu Aba, the biggest islands in Spratlys. Itu
Aba was also claimed by Taiwan.
International Foreign lawyers
wrote to the Foreign Affairs Secretary Rosario to inform him that removing Itu
Aba in the claim would be disadvantageous to the Philippine case.
Solicitor General Jardeleza was
supposed to explain as a legal strategy not to incorporate Itu Aba as what
other layers believed. Another source
said that President Aquino told repercussions to delete Itu Aba from the case,
and Aquino directed Jardeleza to include Itu Aba in the memorial before the
final submission.
Jardeleza disagreed that the Judicial
and Bar Council (JBC) did not allow him to give details his side.
