Ito ang patutsada ni Senate Pres. Alan Peter Cayetano kay National Bureau of Investigation (NBI) Director Melvin Matibag kasunod ng mga pangyayari sa Senado nitong Miyerkules, May 13.
“Sinabi niyang ibibigay niya warrant… ibibigay niya ‘yung report… ipapakita niya na hindi sila ‘yung gumulpi… na hindi sila nag-i-inspeksyon ng mga kotse, tapos sinabi niya paulit-ulit yesterday (na) walang NBI sa Senado,” aniya.

NEW: Tourist who threw a rock at a seal in Hawaii because he was "rich" enough to pay any fines has been arrested by federal agents.
Igor Mykhaylovych Lytvynchuk, 38, was arrested for throwing a massive rock at Lani the seal.
Lytvynchuk was beaten by locals after throwing the rock and has now been taken into custody.
Lani is just one of 1,600 monk seals left.
According to the complaint, when a witness confronted Lytvynchuk, he said: "He did not care and was 'rich' enough to pay any fine."
"Lani is a reminder that humanity and the instinct to protect what is vulnerable are still values people can unite around," said Maui Mayor Richard Bissen.
Lytvynchuk is facing a fine of up to $50,000 under the Endangered Species Act as well as another fine of up to $20,000 under the Marine Mammal Protection Act.
Despite being "rich," money may not buy Lytvynchuk out of all his problems, as he faces up to a year in prison.
