Luis Manzano clarified speculations that his mother, Batangas Governor Vilma Santos-Recto, was the target of a car ambush that killed her executive assistant and his driver last March 12.
The TV host-actor told �The Buzz� on March 13 that he had spoken with his mother about the incident.
�Tinawagan ko �yung mommy ko� habang ongoing ang �E-Live.� Tinanong ko [siya], �Nangyari ba na ikaw �yung target na may nadamay lang?' Sabi niya hindi talaga. Sabi niya, �Ako pauwi. Completely iba ang pupuntahan nila.� So, I guess iba �yong rason kung bakit nangyari �yon. I don�t think may kinalaman sa mommy ko,� Luis related.
Text messages and online posts circulated earlier alleging that the Star for All Seasons was victimized in the ambush. Luis dispelled the rumor on �E-Live� Saturday.
�I just want to clarify na hindi po totoo na ina-ambush ang mommy ko. Ang unfortunate incident po ay nangyari po sa kanyang executive assistant,� he said.
Luis reiterated in his interview with �The Buzz� that the actress-politician is �a-okay.� He also wished that �justice be served� for the victims of the ambush namely Cesar Guce, Santos-Recto�s executive assistant and the supervising administration officer in Batangas� budget office, and his driver Randy Reyes.
The two, together with a 17-year-old boy, were heading to Cuenca, Batangas aboard a Toyota Land Cruiser when three masked men on a motorcycle fired at them along Barangay Banay-Banay at around 6:30 a.m. Sunday, reported ABS-CBN News.
The vehicle, according to witnesses, then lost control and smashed into a watermelon stall. The boy reportedly survived the grim incident but Guce and Reyes did not even when reportedly rushed to the Mary Mediatrix Hospital by bystanders.
Vilma was �shocked� at what happened to her executive assistant.
�He�s a good man at wala akong alam na dahilan para siya patayin,� she told ABS-CBN News.
While Luis thinks the motive behind the ambush was likely "personal,� the Batangas governor is clueless if the incident involved work.
�I have no idea kung may nasasagasaan siya sa trabaho niya, and knowing him, he�s not the type na nakikialam sa interes ng ibang tao,� she said.
The Batangas police, headed by Senior Superintendent Albert Supapo, has launched a special task force to investigate the incident upon Santos-Recto's orders.
�Hindi ko sila pababayaan, gagawin ko ang lahat para mahuli ang mga gumawa sa kanila ng bagay na ito,� said the governor. - source
