By Raïssa Robles
A reader of the blog called our attention today to a tiny mark on the left hand of the self-confessed hired gun, Edgar Matobato.
It looks identical to the tattoo that President Rodrigo Duterte has on his right hand.
Duterte’s tattoo, presidential peace adviser Jesus Dureza told me last month, indicated membership in the Guardians Brotherhood, a group that during Cory Aquino’s presidency staged coups to restore the dictator Ferdinand Marcos to power..
See my story on Duterte’s tattoo:
Maybe somebody can ask Matobato about the mark on his hand.
Below are photos that I blew up of Duterte’s right hand and Matobato’s left hand.
Here is the President’s tattoo:
And here is the assassin’s tattoo:
What does this mean?
Mark Laperal says
Matobato is a genuine person and a valid member of the DDS. He will be silenced by Bato forever to lessen the damage against the president. We will not hear anything from him again, end of he story.
Mark Laperal says
To elect Duterte as president is big joke. Having a president who swore and continue swearing like an ordinary man on the street again is never heard of before. But that’s the way it is. Either you like or despise him as he is just an ordinary man who by stroke of chance become president for 6 agonizing years and will remain so. His state of mind is still that of mayor of Davao and not as president and I doubt if he will change or adjust to his new role as mentally he does not have the savvy and honor to be president of the country maybe president of Davao only.

Vital signs of the moral fibre?
Is the moral fibre clinically dead in all police staff in the country? Probably not in all but their moral fibre is getting severely stretched to a point of intense pain.
Not every one of them wants to be a supporter or enabler of this one way horror journey into an inhumane, cruel dictatorship. It remains an open secret for all observers who have their brains together that these killings are everything but “legitimate”. Even BBC could easily arrange interviews with assassins in Manila early on, while the police are still unable to find any of the so called unidentified hitmen till now and the senate is desperately trying to demolish the witness. (Of course they won´t find them if it´s their boss who hired the killers) http://www.bbc.com/news/world-asia-37192673
These are cowardly executions either conducted by the cops directly or outsourced to well- paid freelancers and denied by the administration at the same time. Codename “D.A.V.A.O” Deadly Assaults Versus Addicts Operation
The so called buy bust operations and shootouts are the camouflage stories. But there are two groups in the country who KNOW EXCACTLY what is going on: Those cops who are directly involved in the so called “legitimate” killings and the freelancers carrying out the rest. (remember “I can´t kill them all…” )
How do these people feel? Especially the cops who can still remember the moral codes they have been sworn to. Despite peer pressure, luring awarding schemes and massive threats the basic human moral instinct is still alive in many individuals of the PNP and even in the freelancers.
It would be high time for more Matobatos and PNP staff to surface and to relief their remorse not only for the sake of their own Karma but for the sake of the country´s last minute rescue.
There is one major technical problem in their way: They have NOBODY to talk to at least no one they can trust.
May I suggest a Jujitsu move? Jujitsu is the defensive martial art of the seemingly weak and overpowered. It is the art of turning the force of the enemy around and against the aggressor:
Why not use the private phone number of D5 that was made public in order to intimidate her and turn it into the lifeline of the moral fibre. Everyone knows that number by now, just get someone to weed out the 99percent crap messages. Publicly disclose this number again and actively invite all cops who cannot sleep at night to come out with the truth….NOW

@Robin
I agree with that there may be more people out there who would like to unburden their conscience and should be provided a means to do so safely.
Your idea is good and I hope you can share it with more people in other social network medium such as twitter etc. and I hope people heed you.
If the police have Oplan Tokhang, the people can launch Oplan Tokhang Konsyensya with the slogan “The truth shall set you free.” (and it is the lie that will bury you)
Robin says
Cognitive dissonance in numbers:
71% think it is very important to keep suspects alive while at the same time 54% are very satisfied with the current campaign with its core strategy being “kill them”. The government officials take it as an approval of their killing schemes while in fact only 2% find it “not important at all” to keep the suspects alive.
A big deal of rationalizing is going on here and it can only last for as long as those who know the reality are kept silent (police, free lancers, witnesses).

What was Gordon up to asking Lazcanas’ height compared to Ma2ba2? To me, Lazcanas resembles the sketch of the man who tried to assasinate the official from the Dept of Agrarian Reform. If that story were true…

I salute Gordon for suggesting “let’s change “WOW PHILIPPINES” to “WOW PI” (put@%* ina) – it may be in jest but it’s a truism
Same to the many senators who advised Du30 to just work and not talk
Robin says
At the same time the other slogan could be adjusted as well to remain authentic.
From “more fun” in the Philippines to “more guns”…..

tama po kayo. mas kahawik ni lascanas ang nasa sketch and to think that ma2ba2 was already under wpp during that time.

And with all this negativity from an unstable PH ECONOMIC AND TOURISM due to KILLINGS and rudeness they aren’t crazy to put it in jeopardy and taint their BRAND NAME INVESTMENT with all this filth being broadcast in the country by no other than it’s own president.
I think the packing tape or the masking tape is best used over Do30 mouth so everyone is safer.

Sen. delima walked out of the marathon senate inquiry last night when all the supposed DDS she mentioned denied the allegations of batobato – a trick they learned from delima herself when she kept denying the allegations of convicted drug lords at Bilibid, including the authenticity of the sex tape and the ownership of multi-million peso white mansion of Ronnie which her camp says is owned by an OFW-cousin of her driver-bodyguard, an incredible alibi – why slave yourself in the desert of the Middle East if you have so much money for a dead investment?
greenpea says
@Kalahari
Senator De Lima is indestructible because the truth is on her side. Her enemies have tried even the vilest and foulest means but she remains unbowed, her dignity and grace intact. There is no need to return the insult you heap her because her endurance is enough reproach to her enemies and that includes you.
But if you are the type who insists on believing in fiction, then there is no point reasoning with you because you are either mentally or morally wanting. Like a rat, you can only operate in the sewers and in the dark with your fellow rats.
You are not after the truth and for what is good for our country. You are only after gratifying your perverse delight in mob persecution. This is a trait not surprising to be found too in the addicts and low lifes being liquidated by your idol hero. Do you really want them dead? Or do not they deserve to be given all the chance to change that is given to blind fanatics?

1st witness testifies delima got millions from drug lord
Rodolfo Magleo, a former police inspector convicted of kidnapping in 2001, testified before the House of Representatives on Tuesday that Sen delima was paid millions to give preferential treatment to drug dealer Jaybee Sebastian. He said he met delima and her driver ronnie dayan in mid 2012.
Magleo, who heads the gang group Kalasag, said delima met with him and three other inmates and asked for their numbers. Delima also gave her number.
Magleo said they were tasked to raise funds for delima by selling drugs. Magleo said dayan would then coordinate with the inmates and ask them for their weekly due of P50,000
But the inmates failed to reach the quota, while jaybee sebastian was able to reach his P100,000 quota for dayan.
Magleo said sebastian and delima were close. He said delima visited sebastian in the latter’s “kubol” and spent two to three hours there. “Siya ay ininvite si delima sa bungalow.. Papasok si delima sa kubol ni sebastian na dalawa lang sila at aabutin ng two to three hours sa kubol niya.” Magleo said.
“Pag-alis ni delima, sasabihin ni jaybee, nakita ninyo gaano ako kalakas kay sec delima.: Magleo said of sebastian.
Magleo said he once had a drinking spree with sebastian who boasted that he paid P10 million to delima for the pull-out of the so called “Bilibid 19”. Another convict, herbert colangco, also paid P2 to P3 million a month to delima to hold concert in the maximum security compound, Magleo said. x-x-x-

Du30 should have admitted them, including his being a leftist/communist, during the campaign – not after he was overwhelmingly elected.
It’s too late now and the global communities are skewing our nation for being attacked by duterte for criticizing his EJK through his unprintable/uncalled for expletives not befitting an ally president, while china and russia applaud on the side.
He could still remedy the diplomatic brouhaha by apologizing and admitting that he has bipolar disorder when his super ego is touched – but divorcing his friendship/belief in marxism is quiet formidable

– There is still no official complaint (i.e. criminal) lodged against DU30 before any Philippines court in the conduct of DU30. He later asked his PNP Chief ‘Bato’ to withdrew the ‘spot reports’ he tendered before the Senate Committee on Justice (formerly chaired by Sen L de Lima).
– Where are my Executive Order(s) in writing that I ordered the PNP and the Military to go after illegal drug pushers, coddlers & protectors? … from my matrix lists?

AMLC bank records supposedly belonging to D5?. Check the details of Aguirre’s statements, nothing in D5’s name. Allegedly in the names of people who used to work with D5. That’s as close as they can get. Unless you can supply a recent news web link to support your stance.

@Mel. Right on the nail. As far as I am aware there is no evidence of de Lima’s involvement in drugs at Bilibid. Only a heap of slanderous, uncorroborated statements. As somebody has already pointed out the multitude of desperate and utterly ridiculous statements put out Aguire more help than hinder D5.
Mel says
To date, there are only two testimonies that may appear ‘strong’ or likes of ‘probable cause’ to pin down D5.
They are NBI Deputy Director Ragos and his off sider Ablen. First Hand DAW, direct knowledge kuno. Nonetheless they executed an Affidavit of their knowledge & participation.
Dahil si @Kalahari ay nakuryente na nuon, here is one link –
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uMGuXNWsAFI
I have also provided links with video time stamped in my previous comments found in Raïssa’s previous articles. Some of the NBP witnesses during House of Cons’ Committee on Justice hearings implicated these two as also receiving bribes, according to some participating witnesses’ testimonies.
It is highly possible in the realm of probabilities that there are people in the DOJ, NBP and/or NBI who received drug monies from drug lords or chieftains incarcerated in the NBP, or outside middle men. These witnesses (except for one) presented are, BTW, not jailed because of drug criminal charges. Such kidnap for ransom, car napping, robbery, etc.
During her term, Sen D5 may not have known who are or haved received drug monies in her big department. Hence, she may have been innocent in the grand scheme of graft & corruptions in the lower echelon of her then DOJ hierarchy. Senior officials and/or operatives who have been found out upon discovery where offered a way out or induced with no criminal charges in exchange of implicating their then DOJ Sec D5 of taking bribes from inmates (drug or protection monies).
Part of their ‘evil’ agenda was to make a copy-cat D5, a corrupt & adulterous D5 phantom in the sphere of public opinion (propaganda). Repeat a lie x number of times, it becomes the truth.
Mel says
@Kalahari, check some past comment exchanges I had with @Parekoy when I sought his ‘grapevine’ sources with highlights that there is a yellow official higher than D5 who ‘benefited’ from these drug money bribes.

Duterte may not be Hitler, but he is the Mugabe of Mindanao, and the three of them have one thing in common – killing.
Attain power from killing, keep power by killing, and want power for killing, all under the pretext of ‘the common good’ and a better tomorrow! All 3rd class humans but 1st class psychos.
Mugabe is called black africa’s hitler, and his comrade in arms duterte is becoming brown asia’s hitler.
The power of the bullet to destroy, instead of the use of the brain to create.
The use of swearing to arouse anger and negativity instead of ideas to inspire and motivate.
Evil only wants to divide and conquer.

And duterte is going round lecturing the police on how to circumvent/use the law and claim self-defence. ‘shoot first – plant evidence afterwards’ has become the modus operandi and one step away from a police state.
