MANILA<\/strong>\u00a0— Defense Secretary Delfin Lorenza is right in saying that the ouster plot against President Rodrigo Duterte is not credible, Malaca\u00f1ang said on Wednesday.<\/p>\n

Presidential Spokesperson Salvador backed Lorenzana\u2019s earlier statement dismissing any plot to oust Duterte since there is no evidence that it has the support from military and police.<\/p>\n

\u201cThere is no inconsistency on what the DND Secretary said. He said for a plot to oust the President, plotter has to get support of military and police,\u201d said Panelo in a statement.<\/p>\n

\u201cSince there is no showing in the military intelligence that there is evidence of recruitment then it is not a credible plot,\u201d he added.<\/p>\n

Panelo, however, emphasized that Lorenzana did not exactly deny the idea of an ouster plot but tagged it as incapable of succeeding.<\/p>\n

\u201cWhat he means is the plot is not capable of being successful, but that is not to say that there is no plot to oust him,\u201d Panelo said.<\/p>\n

Despite baring a series of matrices tagging the Liberal Party, Magdalo Group, and members of the media in a plot to discredit the President, Panelo said this did not mean that it had support from military and police.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe President said there was a plot by the personalities and groups identified in the matrix, he did not say that there is support from the military and the police,\u201d Panelo said.<\/p>\n

\u201cHis exposing it to the public has pre-emptied the realization of the plot,\u201d he added.<\/p>\n

Earlier, Panelo defended the release of the matrices saying the public \u201cdeserved to know\u201d about ouster plots against the leadership of their government.<\/p>\n

He said the matrices were bared to simply show plotters that the Duterte administration is aware of their conspiracy.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe matrix was disclosed to the public for the ring leaders and their co-plotters to know that we know, to put them on notice that pursuing their plan by committing overt acts punishable by law will open themselves to criminal prosecution,\u201d Panelo said.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
