Roque reacts to Pharmally exec’s admission of face shield tampering: ‘Talk is cheap’

By Prince Golez

Malacañang on Monday said the recent admission of a Pharmally Pharmaceutical Corp. executive that her company “swindled” the government must be supported by other evidence.

Presidential Spokesperson Harry Roque was reacting to the allegation of Krizle Grace Mago, an incorporator of the company and its regulatory affairs head, that Pharmally sold millions of expired and substandard face shields to the government.

“Ang tanong po, tatayo ba ang ganyang testimonya? Tignan po natin. Kinakailangan po kasi yan ma-substantiate,” Roque said in a virtual presser.

“Nung ako’y nagti-training pa ng mga abogado, sinasabi ko hangga’t maaari dapat physical evidence ang ating ibigay sa hukuman kasi kung testimonya lang, talk is cheap.

“Pwedeng mabili, pupwedeng matakot. So, hanapan pa po natin ng substantiated evidence. Hindi lang po yung testimonya ng isang tao,” he added.

At a Senate hearing on the alleged overpriced Covid-19 supplies Friday, Mago confessed that she ordered Pharmally’s warehouse staff to change the expiration dates on the face shields as per instruction from Pharmally corporate treasurer and secretary Mohit Dargani.
