De Lima tagged former President Rodrigo Duterte as the mastermind of the charges against her, which she called “manufactured” and “politically motivated,” after she led the investigations in the so-called “Davao Death Squad” when he was mayor of Davao City, and the killings in his “drug war” during his six-year term.
According to Cam, her friendship with De Lima was rekindled during her 10-month detention, and became “stronger” after De Lima was held hostage by one of three members of the Abu Sayyaf group, her fellow detainees who had tried to escape in October last year.Cam hoped that justice would also be served to De Lima, especially since key prosecution witnesses in the cases have recanted their statements.
