MANILA – Malaca\u00f1ang Palace stressed yesterday that President Aquino has no involvement with the investigations into the bungled Mamasapano operations, and that there is no ongoing cover-up of the probe into the tragedy.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe President or the executive branch got no involvement in the ongoing investigations and hearings aside from the resource persons who were called,\u201d Presidential Communications Operations Office Secretary Herminio Coloma Jr. said at a press briefing.<\/p>\n

He also said that as of that moment, he had no information if the National Security Council (NSC) or the Legislative Executive Development Advisory Council (LEDAC) would be assembled but that Congress is working on the government\u2019s priority measures; among these, the Bangsamoro Basic Law (BBL).<\/p>\n

The Palace spokesperson likewise denied accusations that it was Malaca\u00f1ang\u2019s decision to suspend the Congressional hearings and investigations into the fatal Mamasapano mission in which 44 commandos of the Philippine national Police-Special Action Force (PNP-SAF) were brutally slaughtered by Moro Islamic Liberation Front (MILF) rebel troops.<\/p>\n

\u201cFrom the very beginning, the President cited the importance of knowing the complete narrative and finding out the whole truth. The determination and the belief in those principles are unshaken,\u201d Coloma said.<\/p>\n

Investigations and hearings are ongoing in the Senate, but the House of Representatives has suspended its probe, saying it would resume in March.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
