He then proceeded to the house 26 from our parked

He then proceeded to the house.

26. From our parked vehicle, I saw Mr. Ronnie Dayan open the gate. Dep. Dir. Ragos then handed the black
handbag containing bundles of one thousand peso bills to Mr. Dayan.
27. At that time, I also saw the then DOJ Sec. De Lima at the main door of the house. She was wearing plain
clothes which is commonly known referred to as "duster."
28. The house was elevated from the road and the fence was not high that is why I was able to clearly see the
person at the main door, that is, Sen. De Lima.
29. When Dep. Dir. Ragos and Mr. Dayan reached the main door, I saw Mr. Dayan hand the black handbag to Sen.
De Lima, which she received. The three of them then entered the house.
30. After about thirty (30) minutes, Dep. Dir. Ragos went out of the house. He no longer has the black handbag
with him.
31. We then drove to the BuCor Director's Quarters in Muntinlupa City. While cruising, Dep. Dir. Ragos told
me "Nior 'wag kang maingay kahit kanino at wala kang nakita ha," to which I replied "Sabi mo e. e di wala akong
nakita."
32. On the morning of 15 December 2012, Dep. Dir. Ragos again fetched me from my house and we proceeded to
the same house located at Laguna Bay comer Subic Bay Drive, South Bay Village, Paranaque City.
33. That time, I saw a plastic bag in front of my feet. I asked Dep. Dir. Ragos "Quota na naman Sir?" Dep. Dir.
Ragos replied "Ano pa nga ba, 'tang ina sila lang meron. " 134
Petitioner's co-accused, Rafael Ragos, recounted in his own Affidavit dated September 26, 2016 a similar scenario:
8. One morning on the latter part of November 2012, I saw a black handbag containing a huge sum of money on
my bed inside the Director's Quarters of the BuCor. I looked inside the black handbag and saw that it contains
bundles of one thousand peso bills.
9. I then received a call asking me to deliver the black handbag to Mr. Ronnie Dayan. The caller said the black
handbag came from Peter Co and it contains "Limang Manoi<' which means Five Million Pesos (Php5,000,000.00)
as a "manoR' refers to One Million Pesos (Php 1,000,000.00) in the vernacular inside the New Bilibid Prison.
10. As I personally know Mr. Dayan and knows that he stays in the house of the then DOJ Sec. Leila M. De Lima
located at Laguna Bay corner Subic Bay Drive, South Bay Village, Paranaque City, I knew I had to deliver the black
handbag to Sen. De Lima at the said address.
11. Before proceeding to the house of Sen. De Lima at the above[-]mentioned address, I called Mr. Ablen to
accompany me in delivering the money. I told him we were going to do an important task.
12. Mr. Ablen agreed to accompany me so I fetched him from his house and we proceeded to the house of Sen. De
Lima at the above-mentioned address.
13. While we were in the car, I told Mr. Ablen that the important task we will do is deliver Five Million Pesos
(Php5,000,000.00) "Quota" to Sen. De Lima. I also told him that the money was in the black handbag that was on
the floor of the passenger seat (in front of him) and he could check it, to which Mr. Ablen complied.
