Fugitive Sen. Ping Lacson set certain conditions for his surfacing and facing the music, among which is for Noynoy Aquino to order the suspension of the senator’s arrest warrant and to order the reopening of the investigation into the double murder case involving publicist Salvador “Bubby” Dacer and his driver, Emmanuel Corbito. Lacson claims that the probe on this case, naming him a principal accused in the murder case, done during the presidency of Gloria Arroyo, was politically-motivated. If Noynoy, or even the Justice Department or the regional trial court judge handling the murder case does that for Lacson, then obviously, not only would Noynoy be directly interfering in, if not politically influencing the court’s decisions, but would also be giving Lacson special treatment, since others before him, including a President of the Republic, were never given such special treatment. If Noynoy does as Lacson asks, then this opens wide the door to others similarly situated in the sense of the crimes being linked to suspects and accused of having arrest warrants lifted, as a pre-condition for the accused in such non-bailable cases, to face the courts and defend themselves.
