'Bikoy' Asserts he scanned Bong Go's tattoo to Confirm transactions'
Peter Joemel Advincula, the accuser of President Rodrigo Duterte's loved ones at a series of online videos that have since become viral, stood by his allegations that Duterte's son Paolo and former aide Bong Go were members of a drug syndicate.
Advincula, who claimed to be the hooded narrator"Bikoy" in the"Ang Totoong Narco List" videos, stated that as a member of this syndicate he watched the dragon tattoo on the rear of this senatorial candidate.
"Ilang beses din na ako mismo ang nag-iiscan ng code sa likod ni Bong Go kaya tinitiyak ko po sa inyo na may dragon tattoo siya pati na rin si Paolo Duterte," Advincula said when he faced reporters at the Integrated Bar of the Philippines.
In response, Go took off his shirt anew at a media conference to prove he had no monster tattoo on his spine.
"Muli, sinasabi ko na isa lang itong black propaganda ng mga kalaban. Eleksyon ngayon. Napaka-malisyoso pa ng time consuming nila.
"So ngayon, hubarin ko ulit ang damit ko.
At a previous campaign sortie in Agusan del Sur, Go first showed his back and his torso to journalists to prove he had no dragon tattoo Bikoy claimed.
Back then, Go said he had ventosa marks because he frequently gets a massage on account of the rigors of campaigning for a Senate seat.
When he showed his back on Monday in Laguna, the ventosa massage marks were no longer observable.
From the set of the internet that has since gone viral, Bikoy alleged that Paolo, Go, and Duterte's son-in-law Mans Carpio were receiving payoffs from the drug syndicate.
The movies were originally posted on a site put up by Rodel Jayme, who was taken into custody from the National Bureau of Investigation last week.
The NBI has filed a complaint for inciting to sedition against Jayme, who has voiced his willingness to collaborate with authorities to identify the men behind the Bikoy videos.
Advincula denied that supporters of the Otso Diretso senatorial slate was supporting the Bikoy movies as alleged by Rodel Jayme, the web administrator that the National Bureau of Investigation took into custody last week.
In addition, he indicated that other anti-Duterte personalities and media groups were not involved in the creation and dissemination of his own movies as presidential spokesman Salvador Panelo alleged in his ouster plot matrix.
"Gusto kong linawin na wala akong kaugnayan sa kahit kaninong kandidato, lalo na sa mga kandidato ng Otso Diretso, o political party," Advincula said.
"Wala rin akong kaugnayan sa mga media characters at institusyon na pinangalanan ni Pangulong Duterte sa kaniyang matrix," he added.
Further, Advincula denied that he understood Jayme along with his"clients."
Advincula said he was willing to appear before a Senate inquiry.
"Handa po akong humarap sa anumang imbestigasyon upang patotohanan ang lahat ng inilabas ko sa movie serye," Advincula said.
"Samahan niyo ako sa labang ito. Ito ang totoong war on drugs," he added.
Paolo has dismissed the allegation as a fabrication.
"Wow ha kung makaimbento ka wagas," Paolo said in a Facebook post.
In the announcement, it seemed that he knew the individual behind the video.
"Galit ka kay Waldo kasi binabara niya lahat ng smuggling mo ng bigas at asukal diba J.S. Galit ka sa akin kasi di kita pinansin sa eroplano kasi hambog ka!" Paolo said.
"Ngayon pansinin na kita kasama ng kamay ko na kasing laki ng mukha mo pag nangyari yan. Yan ang totoong balita!"
Avanceña has also cried foul over the series of online videos linking members of the presidential family to illegal drugs.
"Tell them, pag certain oi. Napaka walang hiya ko naman na nanay kung ipangalan ko sa anak ko," Avanceña told GMA News. --NB/JST, GMA News
