Graphics by author.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>Recently, rumors have been milling around that alleged pork barrel scam queen Janet Lim-Napoles had plastic surgery in order to escape arrest.<\/p>\n<p>And as ridiculous as the notion may be, there are even hearsay (from a parody news site) that Napoles underwent plastic surgery to look like her chief legal counsel Atty. Lorna Kapunan and\/or Justice Secretary Leila de Lima.<\/p>\n<p>Kapunan simply finds this rumor preposterous, as she was interviewed on the ABS-CBN News Channel (ANC) on Wednesday.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;That is absurd&#8230; She had plastic surgery daw to look like me. That is why they could not find her,&#8221; Kapunan said.<\/p>\n<p>Still in full lawyer mode, Kapunan insisted that her client Napoles is still in the country.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;She has nothing to hide. I am believing that she has nothing to hide,\u201d she said.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIf she is involved, she will come out with the truth. Just let her come out,\u201d she added.<\/p>\n<p>But if her client does come forward, Kapunan says that it is not because of the P10-million reward.<\/p>\n<p>President Benigno Aquino III announced Wednesday that a reward will be given for the arrest of Napoles.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cP10 million is the reward for any information leading to the arrest of Ms. Napoles,\u201d President Aquino announced.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;This latest bounty is not an incentive for her to come out,&#8221; Kapunan said in defense of her client.<\/p>\n<p>Kapunan, in her ANC interview, said that the nationwide manhunt (wherein talks of involving the interpol are already being tackled) is not a sure sign that the government wants Napoles to surrender simply for the sake of turning herself in.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;(The authorities) are placing every obstacle in the way to her coming forward and surrendering herself,&#8221; Kapunan piped.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cShe will come forward,\u201d she added, so long as Napoles is assured of her safety.<\/p>\n<p><em>With reports from Kristine Angeli Sabillo, Ira Pedrasa, and TJ Burgonio.<\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Recently, rumors have been milling around that alleged pork barrel scam queen Janet Lim-Napoles had plastic surgery in order to &hellip;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":44,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[95],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-1182","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","category-news-ph","mauthors-ching-dee","mauthors-philippine-canadian-inquirer"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/canadianinquirer.net\/v1\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1182","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/canadianinquirer.net\/v1\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/canadianinquirer.net\/v1\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/canadianinquirer.net\/v1\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/44"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/canadianinquirer.net\/v1\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=1182"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/canadianinquirer.net\/v1\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1182\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/canadianinquirer.net\/v1\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=1182"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/canadianinquirer.net\/v1\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=1182"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/canadianinquirer.net\/v1\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=1182"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
