The Department of Justice (DOJ) on Friday again failed to secure an arrest warrant and a hold departure order (HDO) against Trillanes, this time from Judge Elmo Alameda of Makati Regional Trial Court (RTC) Branch 150. State prosecutors filed their motion for an arrest warrant in Makati RTC Branches 148 and 150, which originally handled the coup and rebellion charges against Trillanes and the Magdalo group. Robles admitted that Trillanes had yet to find a copy of the application form which, the lawyer insisted, the senator had submitted. 572 declaring Trillanes’ amnesty as being void from the beginning. The lawyer said Trillanes would continue to stay at the Senate instead of risking arrest despite President Duterte’s assurances.
