Roque to ex-envoy to Brazil Mauro: ‘Just quietly vanish into the night’

By Prince Golez

Presidential Spokesperson Harry Roque on Tuesday advised former Philippine ambassador to Brazil Marichu Mauro to “just quietly vanish into the night” after the latter claimed that President Rodrigo Duterte dismissed her due to “pressure from politicians.”

In a recent interview, Mauro, who was caught on video maltreating her household helper, accused the Department of Foreign Affairs of mishandling the investigation of her case.

“Naku, kung makikita niyo naman po yung tape, nakita natin lahat ang mga pangyayari. So, I think, Ambassador Mauro, the best option is to just quietly vanish into the night,” Roque said in a virtual presser.

“Napakahirap pong sabihin na wala siyang pananagutan dahil meron po tayong physical evidence. Huwag po na nating ungkatin iyan dahil malinaw po ang mga nakita natin sa pamamagitan ng teknolohiya,” he added.

On Mauro’s plan to ask Malacannang to reinvestigate her case, the secretary told reporters: “She can, of course, move for reconsideration or appeal. Pero napakihrap po. Hindi ko alam kung anong reconsideration ang gagawin nya because the decision was rendered by the President himself.”
