The controversial new anti-terrorism bill has not yet reached President Rodrigo Duterte’s desk, his spokesman said Tuesday.
In a virtual presser, Palace Spokesman Harry Roque said the Office of the Executive Secretary is still reviewing the measure that penalizes with 12 years imprisonment those who will propose, incite, conspire, participate in the planning, training, preparation, and facilitation of a terrorist act.
“Sinabi ng Presidente, pagdating sa terror bill inaantay lang nya si Senator (Panfilo) Lacson na i-finalize ang commas at periods niya. Ibig sabihin bagamat nasa Malacañang na ang anti-terror bill siguro po pinagaaralan pa ng Office of the Executive Secretary ang sinumiting panukalang batas dahil wala pa po mismo sa lamesa ng Presidente,” according to him.
“Hindi pa niya siguro nakikita or hindi pa nata-transmit sa kanyang lamesa for signature ng Office of the Executive Secretary ang anti-terror law,” added Roque.
Congress transmitted the final copy of the bill to Malacañang on June 9.
