Senator Bato de la Rosa has dismissed calls to inhibit himself from the Senate hearing on Rodrigo Duterte’s War on Drugs. He says, he will participate both as an interpolator and a resource person.

The Adobo Chronicles has obtained part of future transcript of the next scheduled Senate hearing:

SENATOR BATO to SENATOR BATO: Do you admit to being the primary implementor of FPRRD’s war on drugs?

SENATOR BATO to SENATOR BATO: Your Honor, I invoke my right against self-incrimination.

SENATOR BATO to SENATOR BATO: It is a simple yes or no question. I could cite you in contempt!

SENATOR BATO to SENATOR BATO: Your Honor, may I ask for a short break? I need to go pee.

SENATOR KOKO PIMENTEL: Hearing suspended!
