Transcript
00:00Cassandra Lee Ong filed a petition for certiorari and asked for a temporary restraining order from the Supreme Court against committees in the Senate and the House of Representatives.
00:10Ong is one of those who are involved in the illegal operation of Pogo in Porac, Pampanga, and is facing a hearing in the Quadcom in the House of Representatives.
00:18According to Attorney Ferdinand Topacio, the judges are already exaggerating in forcing Ong to answer.
00:25Ong wants to go to jail even more than answering the questions of judges who are already affecting his mental health.
00:35She's shouting, she's being ridiculed, she's being intimidated, she's being threatened.
00:41There are very insulting words that are being said to her.
00:45You are the witnesses of this.
00:47That's the only thing we want to stop. Once the right to remain silent is invoked, no further questionings should be made.
00:55According to Senator Risa Ontiveros, she is convinced that the Supreme Court will repeal the power of the Senate to issue a subpoena and contempt.
01:04According to Congressman Dan Fernandez, Ong cannot use the right to remain silent.
01:10She can invoke the right against self-incrimination depending on the question.
01:15According to Topacio to Fernandez, he should not comment on the merit of the petition.
01:21If Fernandez continues, Topacio will be forced to file a motion to contempt him in court.
01:27Fernandez has not yet made a statement regarding this.
