Senator Santiago to Binay’s NO-SHOW – ‘The guilty flee’

Sen. Defensor Santiago quoted from Bible when she was asked her personal opinion on Vice President’s no—show at Senate Committee hearing.

Asked by VP Binay's decision to just leave to Cebu rather face Senate invitation, Santiago said that: "My thoughts are quoted from Bible. Innocent are as brave as a lion. The guilty flee."


Senator Santiago said that it is very hard to understand what the VP really wants because he is saying so many things while lot of negative evidence has already been presented against him.

She also said that vice president could presented his side in the said hearing but latter only sent his representatives.

VP Binay flew to Cebu early Thursday morning, snubbing the invitation to appear in Senate panel on alleged overpricing of Makati Building construction.

A letter to the Blue Ribbon Committee chairman Sen. Guingona III, says that Binay declined the said invitation of committee since it will just set bad precedent.


He early said that he initially wanted attend the hearing but behavior of Senators Cayetano and Trillanes IV have changed his mind.
