The mother of Ramgen Bautista has accused Senator Ramon Revilla Jr. of allegedly using the case of her son for publicity.
Genelyn Magsaysay specifically pointed to Revilla’s television interview where he claimed that it was him who turned over Ramgen’s younger brother, Ramon Joseph (RJ), to the police.
RJ was tagged as the mastermind in the October 28 killing of Ramgen in their family’s house in Paranaque City.
“Nakakalungkot. Malayo pa ang eleksyon, bakit napakaaga ng kampanya?” Magsasay said in a prepared statement aired on television on Sunday.
“Bakit ang laki ng hinanakit ng senador na ito sa aking mga anak upang paratangan ng isang kahindik-hindik na pangyayari na pagpatay sa aking panganay na anak na si Ramgen. Pag isipan nyo pong mabuti,” she said.
“Nakikiusap po ako. Huwag na nyo po sanang gamitin ang pagkamatay ng aking anak na si Ramgen para sa kung anu-anong publicity. Mahiya naman kayo,’ Magsasay added.
Revilla is half-brother of Ramgen and RJ.
