MANILA, Philippines?A retired military officer, who is asking for the ?consideration of his broken service?, has allegedly threatened to do a Mendoza, if no action will be made on his request, a Senate employee disclosed on Thursday.

Mendoza is Captain Rolando Mendoza, the dismissed police officer, who held hostage a busload of Hong Kong tourists last August 23, killing eight of them. The hostage-taker was also killed in the incident.

In a letter to Defense Undersecretary Pio Batino this Thursday, Rodolfo Noel Quimbo, director-general of the Senate blue ribbon committee, reported that a certain retired TSG Charmie Palencia has been calling their office to follow up on his complaint.

?Just yesterday (Wednesday), September 1, 2010, when he called up to again follow up, we were alarmed when he informed the staff that if and when no action would be made relative to his complaint, he'd also do what Mendoza did in the Luneta Grandstand hostage-taking incident,? Quimbo said in his letter.

?But prior to yesterday's incident, every time he'd call, he would always say that if ever no favorable action would be done, he will go on a protest at the Luneta,? he added.

Palencia was requesting that ?his broken service? from February 24, 1998 to August 14, 1994 be included in his benefits in the military service.

Quimbo's office has referred Palencia's case as early as January 2010 to then defense secretary Norberto Gonzales for appropriate actions.
