It’s CPO’s turn to present proof vs bombing suspect

From the Mindanao Times (Dec 2): It’s CPO’s turn to present proof vs bombing suspect
 
THE CITY Prosecution Office is set to present its evidence on Dec. 4 in relation to the motion filed by Abdul Manap Mentang, the suspect in the 2005 Davao City Overland Transport Terminal bombing.

Regional Trial Court Branch 33 Presiding Judge Lope Calio set the presentation of the prosecution’s evidences on Friday at 10 a.m.

The prosecution will first present the fingerprints of the accused which was cross-matched with the latent prints of the database of the Philippine National Police in the hope of revealing his real identity.

The legal counsel of Mentang on Tuesday already finished presenting all the evicence and witnesses to prove that his client’s real identity is Abdullah P. Hamsa.

Based on the motion, Mentang asked the court to junk the case because of the questionable manner in which the warrant of arrest was served and to declare his arrest and imprisonment as unconstitutional, wrongful, unreasonable, mistaken and false.

On the other hand, the Criminal Investigation and Detection Group (CIDG-ARMM) earlier prepared the affidavits of the three witnesses who are ready to testify in court and prove that he is Mentang.

Mentang was arrested at Barangay Panatan, Pigcawayan, North Cotabato on Nov. 11 by virtue of arrest warrant issued by Judge Wenceslao Ibabao former presiding judge of RTC Branch 33 for multiple murder and multiple frustrated murder. The accused has also a standing warrant before the RTC 12 Branch 14 in Cotabato City for multiple murder.
