Delaying the Malacañang reviewed Incident Investigation and Review Committee (IIRC) report further, with a Palace plea for more time to further review it, as well as the panel’s recommendations, can only mean one thing: A lot of alterations are being done with justifications being made by Noynoy Aquino and his Palace boys to merely provide a slap on the wrist of those personalities who have been implicated in the IIRC fact-finding report.
Noynoy’s explanation for the delay in the release of the full IIRC report was that this was submitted to him before he left for the United States (not quite accurate, since he had at least four days to read it) and that he was only able to read some 45 pages of the IIRC, after which, he claimed that the IIRC came up with corrections, so that he had to read the full report upon his return.
But before he left for the US, he said he had ordered his legal team to review the IIRC report, which he said he had already read. And when did the IIRC make the corrections? This was never bared by the IIRC panel. What the panel stated that it would be submitting addendums, which would consist of the forensic report of the police crime lab as well as the surviving hostages’ affidavits.
It is getting pretty evident that the overly long delay in baring the reviewed report is being done justify the sparing of many of his allies named in the IIRC report..... MORE
