Vice President Jejomar Binay is now open to appearing before the Senate to respond to allegations of graft and corruption, GMA News reported in its evening newscasts, but only if it is the Senate Blue Blue Ribbon Committee that invites him and not a subcommittee.
As this developed, Senator Alan Peter Cayetano told news media that he expects the Blue Ribbon Committee to have ready by October 28 for signature, the arrest orders needed to compel purported dummies of the Vice President to come before the committee.
However, as of Tuesday, neither the Senate nor GMA News have been able to find either Gerry Limlingan or Erlinda Chong.
The Senate tried to serve subpoenas inviting the alleged dummies but those attempts have failed.
