GMA7: Atty Ferdie Topacio claimed the latest plunder case was "hurriedly" set in motion by "self-anointed public guardians" since the electoral sabotage against the former president is about to collapse. "The pattern is now clear: file every flimsy non-bailable charge against Mrs. Arroyo one after the other, so that even if they are later on proven baseless, then at least the damage has already been done by way of detaining her without bail," Topacio said. But Mrs. Arroyo's lawyer said he was keeping his faith in the independence of the judiciary, which he hoped would act as a "final bulwark of the people's civil and political rights."
