00:00Meanwhile, the Chamber of Deputies is now studying the witnesses who will be reimbursed for their testimonies in the House Quad Committee.

00:10Here's Noel Talacay's report.

00:13The House Quad Committee is now studying the witnesses who will be reimbursed for their testimonies in the House Quad Committee.

00:22This is what the Second District Surrogate Lawyer Representative and Chairman of the House Committee on Dangerous Drugs,

00:30Representative Robert Ace Barbers, said in a news report in Lungsod, Manila.

00:36In the Quad Committee, we will probably recommend a much stiffer penalty for perjury.

00:43Because we think, why is it like that?

00:46It's like they're exaggerating the accusation.

00:50They will speak here and then they will recant.

00:53They can ask for help from the Supreme Court on what should be the highest penalty for a witness

01:03who will be reimbursed for his testimony in a congressional inquiry.

01:08Maybe we can ask for suggestions or recommendations from our friends in the Supreme Court.

01:15It is also necessary to make a law to include the lawyers of the witnesses who will be reimbursed or removed from their licenses.

01:25Barbers insisted that the witnesses should include the lawyers in the formation and writing of their testimonies.

01:32In the future, we can call the lawyers.

01:36You are the witness there. You are the one who went there. You are the one who made his testimony.

01:44But now, he is being reimbursed. You have a connection to his reimbursement.

01:49When was it reimbursed by Self-Confessed Drug Lord Erwin Espinoza,

01:54his statements against former Senator Laila Del Lima,

01:59who was involved in the operation of illegal drugs in the country.

02:02Espinoza is facing a House Squad Committee hearing as a witness in the extrajudicial killings of the previous administration.

02:10Barbers insisted that all the witnesses of the House Squad Committee should approach them.

02:17Many are asking for witnesses, but not all of them can be accepted.

02:24We will have to weigh it, evaluate it, and it has to have some corroborative witness or documentary evidence to support the statement.

02:36If there is none, we will not believe it.

02:40Barbers is one of the co-chairs of the House Squad Committee where he is investigating the operation of illegal drugs and extrajudicial killings in the previous administration.

02:53Noel Talacay for Pambasang TV in Bagong, Philippines.
