The latest star witness for the government in its plunder case vs Erap Estrada has just arrived under a cloak of news blackout with the DOJ immediately taking Ang into so-called "protective custody" amid so-called "murderous threats" to his life.
Nevertheless, this delaying tactic by the prosecution could backfire once the defense demand that Ang's testimony be corraborated by material evidence that would conclusively produce the smoking gun against the former president.
After five long years and no conviction, it's obvious that Arroyo and the civil society are merely grasping at straws to ensure the she completes her full term before Estrada is pronounced innocent by the trial court.
