Lawyer Jamael Jacob, a former NPC director and now a data protection officer at Ateneo de Manila University, said the Data Privacy Act requires the DND to protect information like Trillanes’ amnesty application form. What happened to Trillanes’ application form is unknown but its loss became the basis for President Duterte’s Proclamation No. In a talk with reporters on Wednesday, Trillanes called on the military and the DND to “tell the truth” about the loss of his amnesty application form. Nonbailable caseThe DOJ has also asked the Makati RTC Branch 148 to reopen the coup d’état case against Trillanes and order his arrest. If the case is reopened, Trillanes will be imprisoned while under trial, as coup d’état is a nonbailable offense.
