MANILA, Philippines - Congressional allies of former President Gloria Macapagal-Arroyo asked the Supreme Court (SC) yesterday to void President Aquino’s order creating the Truth Commission.
House Minority Leader Edcel Lagman, along with opposition Representatives Rodolfo Albano Jr. of Isabela, Simeon Datumanong of Maguindanao and Orlando Fua Jr. of Siquijor, challenged the constitutionality of Executive Order No. 1 creating the body tasked to investigate the alleged misdeeds of Arroyo and her officials during her nine-year administration.
