Of the 20 former and incumbent senators, Enrile, Estrada, and Revilla are already facing plunder complaints before the Office of the Ombudsman.
The agents
Enrile’s agents are Gigi Reyes, Ruby Tuason, Freddie Villamor, Butch Tuason.
Jinggoy’s agent was Ruby Tuason, while Richard Cambe acted as Revilla’s agent.
According to Napoles, certain “Bernard and Rose Palacio” acted as agents for Biazon and Barbers, respectively.
The affidavit also stated that certain “Lyn,” Matt Ranillo, Butch Tuazon, Tet De Joya, and Pauline Labayen acted as agents for Ex-Sen. Loi, wife of former President and now Manila Mayor Joseph Estrada, while a certain “Atty. Danny” acted as agent for Honasan.
Jaworski’s agents, according to Napoles’ affidavit, were his son Dudut (prior to his election as Pasig congressman) and Tet De Joya.
A certain Zenaida Ducut acted as Lapid’s agent, while a certain Catherine Mae “Maam Maya” Canlas Santos acted as agent for Marcos and Legarda.
In Magsaysay’s case, Napoles said that certain Patricia “Gay” Agana Tan, Bibing Agana Villacorta, and Atty. Yacky Agana were his agents.
Listed as Oreta’s agent was a certain Carlos “Caloy” Reyes, while a certain Mon Arcenas acted as agent of the elder Pimentel. On the younger Pimentel’s case, his estranged wife Jewel and Luis “Louie” Cruz acted as his agents.
Napoles named Jennifer “Jen” Corpuz as Sotto’s agent, while she identified Jun Adriano and Arman Padilla as the agents of the Villar couple.
Campaign contributor
Napoles also admitted providing campaign funds for former senator Villar through Adriano, as well as Cayetano and Escudero.
“Nagbigay ako ng pera para sa kampanya ni Senador Alan Peter Cayetano noong last election (2010). Nagkita kami sa Slice restaurant sa Bonifacio Global City. Personal kong inabot sa kanya ang pera,” Napoles stated in page 28 of her affidavit.
She also said she got to meet congressman Ompong Plaza who introduced her to Escudero who ran in the 2010 senatorial elections.
Before the elections, Napoles said she met Escudero in a private function at a Chinese restaurant in EDSA Shangri-La Hotel and was convinced to provide financial support for his presidential bid. Escudero would later back out from his presidential bid.
Napoles said her next meeting with Escudero, already a senator, was at the Taste of LA in Quezon City. She said they discussed possible projects and gave sizeable funds again to Escudero only to learn later that no project pushed through.
Not the mastermind
In the same affidavit, Napoles reiterated her innocence in the pork barrel fund scam and her decision “to tell the whole truth.”
“I am not the most guilty and not the mastermind of the alleged P10-billion pork barrel fund scam nor of the Malampaya fund scam,” Napoles said.
“I categorically and strongly deny that I am the mastermind of the alleged Priority Development Assistance Fund (PDAF) or pork barrel and Malampaya fund scams as well as other projects that used government funds of which I have personal knowledge of,” she also said.
Napoles also said that though the Commission on Audit (COA) report identifies at least 82 NGOs with questionable transactions, she clarified that she is not involved nor familiar with all these NGOs.
“I am absolutely sure that even before I entered into the business of transacting through NGOs or foundations, there were already existing foundations transacting with the government,” she said.
As a businesswoman, Napoles said she just wanted to expand her business as well as the distribution of her products having been a manufacturer of liquid foliar fertilizers.
But in 2000, Napoles said she was introduced to Abad by Manuel Jarmin at a Japanese restaurant at EDSA Shangri-La. It was during the meeting that Abad told Napoles about the P10-million project.
Napoles also said that she was presenting her affidavit to support her request for the exclusion of her children James Christopher and Jo Christine from prosecution, saying they had “no knowledge, participation, and involvement” in the case.
“I am executing this affidavit to shed light on the facts and circumstances surrounding the PDAF and Malampaya fund scams involved in the cases pending before this honorable office and to support my request to be utilized as state witness and to be granted immunity from criminal prosecution in accordance with Section 17 or Republic Act 6770,” Napoles stated in the conclusion of her affidavit.
