Statement on Acquittal of Former Senator Leila De Lima.

May 12, 2023

We, the Movement Against Disinformation, Inc. (MAD), express our utmost gratitude and relief with the acquittal of Former Senator Leila De Lima in one of the trumped up charges against her today in the Regional Trial Court of Muntinlupa City. This decision is a testament for fairness, equity, and credibility of our judiciary and its fealty to the Rule of Law.

We look to the day that all the other cases against her are resolved and so she could walk free and rejoin the ranks of advocates and truth-tellers.

MAD, together with Former Senator De Lima, shall persist in the battle for truth, justice, and the rule of law.
