Miriam: PNP chief directly confessed to bribery Posted on Friday Oct 10th at 1:50pm By Louis Bacani MANILA, Philippines - Sen. Miriam Defensor-Santiago on Friday lambasted Philippine National Police (PNP) Director General Alan Purisima for receiving donations for the construction of his official residence at Camp Crame. Speaking at the annual convention of the Philippine Real Estate Boards Inc., Santiago said Purisima committed bribery when he accepted the help of at least three private donors to shoulder the expenses for the P11.4 million White House at the PNP national headquarters. He does not deny it. Inaamin niya. Sabi niya Pinaayos ko, pinaganda ko yung aking tirahan sa loob ng kampo militar. Pagkatapos binigyan ako ng pera ng kung sinu-sinong mga tao para mabawi ko yung ginastos doon sa bahay na iyon, Santiago said in her speech, which was shown on television reports. That is a direct confession and admission to the crime of bribery. Ang lakas ng loob niya, she added. Santiago also criticized Purisima for not temporarily vacating his post amid the allegations against him and a government probe.
