Malacañang announced yesterday President Duterte’s appointment of Faeldon as deputy administrator III of the Office of the Civil Defense of the DND. Lacson earlier sued Faeldon for economic sabotage before the Office of the Ombudsman. However, the Senate cannot also be dictated upon to release Faeldon from custody,” Lacson said. “Faeldon knows the dark secrets of the Duterte family that’s why, even if he is grossly incompetent, he remains a sacred cow,” Trillanes said. Defense Secretary Delfin Lorenzana said the OCD welcomes Faeldon, but he stressed the DND did not request for Faeldon’s appointment.
