Arroyo grants pardon to former President Joseph Ejercito after 43 days the Guilty Verdict on plunder had been given.

Moral-Majority believes this is a political ploy intended to shift the focus of public debate away from the ZTE scandal and palace payoffs towards this potentially divisive issue. "We [Moral-Majority] are not against pardon per se, especially if it is granted for humanitarian reasons. What we oppose is the timing and the motives behind it." (Ref: [Moral-Majority] Digest Number 44).

State prosecutor questions legality of Estrada pardon but, it is just fair to release Estrada after 6 long years of sufferings under the hands of the country's political ruling class...
