MLA BULLETIN: Arroyo's lawyers stressed this yesterday after former Gabriela Rep. Lisa Maza, one of the complainants in the case, told the Sandiganbayan Fourth Division that her main basis in filling the case against the former President, her husband, Atty. Jose Miguel Arroyo, former Chairman Benjamin Abalos, and former Transportation Secretary Leandro Mendoza, was the Senate Blue Ribbon Committee report which conducted an investigation on the deal in 2007. Lawyer Lawrence Arroyo, counsel of the former President, said all that was presented was hearsay evidence. "It was all hearsay. They heard it from other people. They don't have any personal knowledge on the deal but based only what other people, specifically from the opposing side, had told them," Arroyo said.
