On the motion for inhibition she filed on Tuesday, Rama said that she “has been informed by a reliable source that she will not be able to get a fair and impartial treatment in the entire Quezon City Prosecutor's Office.”
According to Rama, the reason behind the alleged bias is the information she received about Montenegro reportedly having connections with people in the office.
Quezon City prosecutor Liezel Morales was taken aback by the motion Rama filed.
Morales said that she is not the type of government official who will take on bribes.
“Ako ‘yung fiscal na kahit presidente hindi nalalakad sa kaso,” she said.
“Kaya nga walang lumalapit sa akin sa kaso, kilala naman nila ako, hindi nila ako nalalakad. Alam mo, hindi ako nababayaran,” she added.
Montenegro’s camp has denied Rama’s accusations.
“These are false accusations and we will file the necessary legal action,” said Atty. Marie Glen Abraham, Montenegro's lawyer.
“Hindi ko alam kung saan nanggaling ‘yung mga statement na ‘yan. I really hope that Ms. Annabelle Rama will refrain from these false accusations against my client, specifically also against the investigating prosecutor and the whole office of the prosecutor’s office,” Abraham added.
