The logbook at the Dignitaries Lounge of the Ninoy Aquino International Airport showed that members of the Presidential Security Group were in a car that picked up Rodolfo Noel Lozada Jr.,Mulberry Handbags, witness in the Senate investigation into the national broadband network controversy, last week.
The same logbook also belied the statement of NAIA assistant general manager Angel Atutubo who claimed that he was in one of the service vehicles that had escorted Lozada out of the airport upon his arrival from Hong Kong.
These two things were pointed out by Senator Alan Peter Cayetano as he led the senators’ ocular inspection at the NAIA Thursday.
Cayetano is chairman of the blue ribbon, the lead committee looking into allegations of corruption in the scrapped $329 million NBN contract forged with China’s ZTE Corp.
The logbook also showed that the Toyota Altis, with plate number ZGJ 566,Prada Purses, in which Lozada rode, was in a convoy that included a Ford Everest,Wholesale scarves, with plate number WAA 525 and a Nissan Serena, with plate number ZLJ 839.
Another logbook,Mulberry Handbags, this time from the West Basement, did not indicate any PSG personnel but mentioned a “Cpl. [corporal] Ramilla” as among those who assisted Lozada.
Following are entries from the logbook at the Dignitaries Lounge Basement:
“1530 H Gray Corolla Altis plate no. ZCJ 556 park in on board PSG, going upstairs.
1623 H Ford Everest # WAA 525 and Nisssan Serena QRV-R # ZLJ 839 arrive on board General Atuttubo and all areas for Engr. Octavio F. Lina 7-6 at VIP room.
1650 H All service vehicles parked moved out upon arrival of VIP together with Atutubo.”
The entries on the West Basement logbook, on the other hand, note:
“1620 H Gen. Atutubo onboard with his svc. Vehicle w/ plt # WAA 525 pass thru, proceed c/in to dignitaries lounge w/ escort.
1630 H All areas Eng’r. Bing Lina here at and assist c/in by V.I.P. pax due by using elevator. 1648 H move out.
1650 H Gen. Atutubo, Eng’r. Lina and Cpl. Ramilla c/out here. They used the elevator to assist arrival pax to board vehicle plt. # ZCJ 556, and after a while they drove out also w/ their svc.”
Cayetano said he has requested for at least four logbooks to be presented at the Senate hearing Monday — the ones from the Dignitaries Lounge Basement, Basement Gate 1, the Baggage Build-Up Security, and the one used by personnel who issue access passes to people who fetch VIPs.
But NAIA general manager Alfonso Cusi said that the PSG note on the logbook did not necessarily mean that its members had picked up Lozada. He said that they would regularly go to the airport to pick up VIPs.
Cusi also identified Corporal Ramilla as an airport police whose presence at the time of Lozada’s arrival was part of his (Ramilla’s) regular job.
Cusi added that the vehicles mentioned in the logbook did not mean that these had been used to escort Lozada.
The logbook noted: “All service vehicles parked moved out upon arrival of VIP together with Atutubo.”
Aside from Cayetano, other senators who joined the ocular inspection at the NAIA were Senate President Manuel Villar and Senators Rodolfo Biazon and Gregorio Honasan.
