It is good that President Aquino’s elder sisters, Ma. Elena “Ballsy” Cruz and Ma. Aurora “Pinky” Abellada have publicly stated that they all want to move on and let history and the courts, if any case remains pending, make the final judgment on the murder of their martyred father — the late Sen. Benigno “Ninoy” Aquino Jr. In particular, they said they have no intention of prolonging the decades old search for the brains behind the assassination, noting that by their and, obviously, our people’s reckoning they have already achieved justice. In a recent interview with our friend Booma Cruz of Vera Files a day or two before quietly commemorating their father’s 27th death anniversary yesterday, P-Noy’s eldest sisters said it was time to move on. “For me, that’s so long ago,” “Pinky” Abellada was quoted as having said: “We know who did it. many of them are dead; let’s move forward. I don’t know if human rights advocates will get angry, but for me, you cannot hold these ill feelings for long because in the end it’s you who will suffer..” This sentiment was echoed by Ballsy Cruz who advised “For me, it’s over. As far as I’m concerned, it is a closed book already because we already know who is behind it. I mean, I’ve made up my mind insofar as who planned it..” Source: The Daily Tribune URL: http://www.tribuneonline.org/commentary/20100822com5.html |
