SUSUNUGIN SI ROBIN? Sen. Robin Padilla nabahala ng makatanggap na banta sa kanyang buhay

Senator Robin Padilla’s security was on full alert after an online campaign about burning him had already reached more than 30,000 participants.

The said campaign: “Sunugin si Senador Robin Padilla kung amoy Rody Duterte nga sya,” was formed after Padilla expressed his loyalty to former President Rodrigo Duterte, saying in jest that he would still smell like the former chief executive even if you burn him.

However, Padilla’s security team took the online campaign seriously because someone might use it to do actual harm to the senator.

“Nagkaroon ng paghihigpit sa aming mga pupuntahan at sa Hanggang ngayon ay naka red alert pa rin ang aking security dahil ang mga ganitong kampanya ayon sa kanila ay baka sakyan ng mga terorista,” said Padilla.

He even said that they planned to file charges against the organizer of the said event, but decided to backtrack because he believed that it would make him look like an onion-skinned politician.

“Napagkasunduan na mag file ng kaso ang aming pamilya sa mga nagpakalat at nagkampanya nito pero napagkasunduan ng pamilya na bitiwan ang pagreklamo ng cyberlibel dahil hindi mainam,” he stated.
