Share TweetBy Jeffrey DamicogThe four co-respondents of Marawi City Vice Mayor Arafat Salic have until May 2 to respond to the rebellion complaint against them concerning their alleged participation in the 2017 Marawi siege. In his counter-affidavit, the vice mayor asked the DOJ to dismiss the rebellion case since Marawi Mayor Majul Usman Gandamra fabricated the allegations. “It is noteworthy that all the three witnesses are first cousins of the incumbent Mayor of Marawi City, Majul Usman Gandamra, who happens to be respondent Salic’s political rival. And this is not the first time that they falsely accused respondent Salic and his family with purposes of harassment,” he added.
