Repost: Was Driver Given this White House by Senator?

A narrow road cutting through green fields leads to a two-story white house in Barangay Galarin here where the driver of Sen. Leila de Lima allegedly lives.

On Wednesday, President Duterte linked De Lima to the illegal drug trade by claiming that her driver, Ronnie Palisoc Dayan, was her bagman who allegedly collected drug payoffs for her. He also claimed that the senator was in a relationship with Dayan.

The former human rights commissioner and former justice secretary had previously denounced then Davao City Mayor Duterte for his alleged links to the Davao Death Squad.

She also recently called for a Senate inquiry into the spate of killings that, she said, was a result of the President’s brutal war on illegal drugs.

The Galarin neighborhood was tight-lipped about the private lives of Dayan and De Lima when the Inquirer visited the village on Thursday.

Dayan’s neighbors would neither confirm nor deny the President’s allegation that the two-story house was De Lima’s gift to her driver.

Asked for  comment  on this story, De Lima declined to issue a statement

Orange bungalow

Dayan also owns an orange bungalow located about 100 meters from the white house that, his neighbors said, took some time to build and was completed only in March this year.

The Galarin village chief, Rodolfo Licuanan, said Dayan’s children live in the orange house. “[Dayan] has two married children with their own families, while his youngest child is still in high school,” he said.

But Licuanan was uncertain as to whether Dayan’s wife lived with their children or if she lived in the Visayas, as previously reported.

Asked if De Lima indeed paid for the white house, Licuanan shook his head and said, “I don’t know.”

Relocated

Dayan’s uncle, Alfredo Lomibao, 73, said he had not heard about Mr. Duterte’s allegations. “I know nothing about these accusations, but I am certain the Dayans are a peace-loving family,” Lomibao said.

Another Urbiztondo resident said Dayan and his family used to live with his parents in a small house in the village.

But after his wife and children relocated to another province, he moved to the white house where he and De Lima were often seen, said the resident who asked that his identity be withheld.

Urbiztondo (population: 47,831 in 2010), is a third-class agricultural town located between San Carlos City and Mangatarem town in the southern part of the province.

A neighbor, who claimed to be Dayan’s nephew, said De Lima’s driver was a good man who would often treat them to a party whenever he was in the neighborhood.

The Inquirer could not immediately confirm these details, as no one had opened the gates of the orange house when it came calling. But a car was parked in the driveway and a dog cage stood on one side of the house.

At the white house, the Inquirer saw five motorcycles and a small truck in the garage.  A neighbor offered to call Dayan, but he, too, did not get any response from the driver.

The village chief claimed that De Lima would stay in Dayan’s house whenever she visited the town.

“I knew she was around because people would tell me that she was here,” Licuanan said about the supposed visits when De Lima served as justice secretary under former President Benigno Aquino III.

The last time she visited the village was in December last year, when she distributed some gifts, Licuanan said.

“A little cash, P50 for the children and P100 for the adults. But she did not go around; it’s the people who went to the house,” he said.

Advance party

Occasionally, De Lima and Dayan would be seen at the public market buying vegetables and fish.

“We would see them on weekends. She would arrive on a Saturday and leave on a Sunday,” a resident said.

He added that people in the town knew she was coming because she allegedly had an “advance party.”

“It’s open knowledge in the village who financed the building of that house,” Senior Supt. Ronald Lee, provincial police director, claimed during a media forum in Lingayen town, also in Pangasinan, on Thursday.

“He is just a driver and residents say he could not have bought that property by himself,” Lee added.

He presented documents from the Urbiztondo police about an incident in which Dayan had allegedly punched a policeman and threatened to kill a barangay tanod (village watchman) after they reportedly confronted Dayan for indiscriminately firing a gun during a drinking party in April 2014.

No case was filed against Dayan after the complaint was reportedly settled amicably.

“We want to be updated on the case,” Lee said. “Was there really a settlement? There was talk that two government prosecutors went to the police station to settle the case at that time,” he said. With a report from Gabriel Cardinoza, Inquirer Northern Luzon

  17. Neighbors talaga aag tanungin?? Hehe. Malay ba nila. Hindi ba kayang icheck sa BIR yan. Sympre nagbayad yan ng tax so malamang may record. Pero kung totoo na may relasyon si delima at yung driver. Di rin naman natin alam baka separated na rin yung lalaki sa asawa. Kailangan ba talaga nating kalkalin yan unless galing nga sa drug money yung pinantayo nyan. Pero hindi kagandahan yung house. Yes magara for a driver pero Im sure kaya namang magpatayo ng bahay ni delima kahit di sya tumanggap ng drug money. Bukod sa bahay na yan meron pa bang ibang questionable properties si delima at yung driver??? Kasi kung wala can we just leave them alone na lang.

  18. Ako ay walang pakielam na magjowa sila ng driver nya. Most politicians have extra-marital affairs (yung ibang politicians kasal pa, concubinage din yun ah). Even the president said to his interviews before may girlfriends sya.

    Ang importante dito kung yung pera bang pinagpagawa ng bahay galing sa drugs. o may link si De Lima sa mga drug lords in general. Tignan sana yung kaso bilang DOJ chief na protector ng drug lords kesa sa matandang babaeng nakikiapid sa lalaking driver nya. Yung mga tao ang hilig sa chismis.

    6. Ang problema po kasi lawyer din si De LIma, alam nya ang galawan kaya lahat ng ebidensya na konektado sya sa drug trafficking ay Malabo nating makikita. Digong is looking for a backdoor on how to expose De Lima. This is a duel of two intelligent minds. For all we know, De Lima's inquiry about the judicial killings is her "legal" way to sway Digong from forward attacking her drug-constituents.
      Mga miron lang tayo sa issue na ito, we don't know what's happening within the administration. I'm just too thankful that Digong is tryig to be honest as possible to the state of our nation.

      I'm not a tard. I never voted for Digong nor did my family. Ngayon ko sya na-aappreciate and I thank the masses who elected Digong our president.

  26. I think what Duterte is trying to do is not just to eradicate drugs and make our country a safe place. His next agenda could be clean up corruption by exposing trapo politicians. It would be nice if the people's trust in the government will be restored. I am so sick and tired of politicians who do nothing but talk and criticize but offer no helpful suggestions to help our government. Hey, it's okay to criticize but offer some concrete solutions for pete's sake. It's like having that annoying officemate who complains all the time but offers no process improvement.
