In a significant turn of events, two former employees of Representative Zaldy Co have retracted their allegations that they delivered cash-filled luggage to Senator Loren Legarda. Levito Baligod, the lawyer representing the individuals, confirmed on Monday that they admitted to making a mistake regarding their previous claims. Initially, the two had alleged that they brought two suitcases filled with cash to Legarda's residence, but Baligod clarified that they did not actually deliver the luggage to her home as previously stated. Despite the retraction, no corrected affidavit has been submitted to the Office of the Ombudsman, leaving the situation unresolved. Additionally, Baligod indicated that Senator Legarda may consider filing a perjury case against the two former bagmen for their false statements, which were linked to Rep. Zaldy Co. This development raises questions about the credibility of the allegations and the potential legal repercussions for those involved.
