Philippines - Former President Fidel Ramos on Friday said he was also victimized by the illegal wiretapping just like former President Corazon Aquino, whose Quezon City residence was found bugged last Wednesday by still unidentified men.
“It is really saddening to have a former president, even just a former high official of the country, being bugged by somebody,” Ramos said.
He said he should know because he too was a victim of eavesdropping by people he does not know...
The military, which has the capability to wiretap phone lines, has denied involvement in the wiretapping of the Aquino residence.
AFP public information office chief Lt. Col. Bartolome Bacarro said they have no reason to wiretap the former president. (more)
