CHAVIT SINGSON BREAKS SILENCE: GRETCHEN BARRETTO NOT LIABLE, BUT ATONG ANG IS “HEADING TO JAIL” OVER SABUNGERO SCANDAL
In a jaw-dropping revelation that may change the entire trajectory of the sabungero disappearance case, former Ilocos Sur Governor Luis “Chavit” Singson has declared that Gretchen Barretto is innocent and will likely escape prosecution, while Atong Ang is set to face jail time for his alleged role in the case.
Speaking in a televised interview this morning, Singson stunned the public when he dropped the statement that split the fate of two of the most controversial names in the ongoing investigation.
“Si Gretchen? Wala siyang kinalaman diyan. Pero si Atong — siya talaga ang may alam. Siya ang dapat managot.”
Gretchen: Cleared by Chavit?
Singson claims that Gretchen was “only dragged into the issue by association” and that she was never directly involved in the operations linked to the disappearance of over 30 sabungeros.
“Ginamit lang ang pangalan ni Gretchen. Sikat kasi, kaya madaling idikit. Pero kung titignan mo ang ebidensya, wala siyang papel diyan.”
Singson emphasized that Barretto has not been named in any major financial trail, communication log, or testimony that directly implicates her.
If this holds up under investigation, Gretchen may be formally cleared by the DOJ in the coming weeks.
Atong Ang: “Walang Ligtas”
In stark contrast, Singson didn’t mince words about Atong Ang:
“Marami nang lumalabas na dokumento, mga text, tawag, galaw ng pera — lahat yan pabor sa kaso laban kay Atong.”
According to Singson, there is mounting evidence tying Atong Ang to:
Illegal betting operations
Payment of operatives tied to the abductions
Direct communication with individuals now under investigation
Bank transactions from shell companies allegedly linked to missing sabungeros
Singson concluded:
“Mahirap nang takasan. Kung hindi siya umamin, baka lalong lumalim ang kaso.”
DOJ Still Silent, But Hints at Movement
While the Department of Justice (DOJ) has not officially confirmed or denied Chavit’s claims, insiders say the prosecution team is already drafting separate case strategies for the two figures.
Gretchen Barretto may be placed under “no-charge witness category” if she cooperates.
Atong Ang is allegedly being tracked abroad for possible extradition proceedings.
A DOJ insider said:
“We’re watching closely. Chavit’s statement aligns with some leads we’ve already been developing.”
Public Reaction: Divided and Explosive
As expected, the revelation sparked intense reactions online:
“So Gretchen was a scapegoat? Grabe ‘yung damage sa kanya.”
“Chavit clearing her might be strategic — but bakit ngayon lang?”
“Atong better lawyer up. If even Chavit’s turning against him, tapos na.”
Hashtags now trending:
#GretchenCleared, #AtongArrestNow, #ChavitBombshell, and #JusticeForSabungeros
What Does This Mean for the Case?
If Chavit’s public statements are confirmed by DOJ filings, the case could unfold as follows:
Gretchen may become a cooperating witness against Atong Ang.
Atong Ang could face multiple charges, including obstruction of justice, conspiracy, illegal gambling, and possibly involvement in enforced disappearances.
The investigation may zero in on financial and communication records already flagged by NBI teams.
Families of Victims: “Basta may managot”
The families of the missing sabungeros remain cautiously optimistic:
“Wala kaming personal na galit sa kahit kanino. Ang gusto lang namin — hustisya. Kahit sino pa yan — artista o negosyante.”
Final Thought: A Turning Point?
Chavit’s words carry weight in Philippine politics — especially when tied to law enforcement, crime, and insider knowledge. If he’s right, Gretchen Barretto may walk free, and Atong Ang may become the highest-profile arrest in the sabungero case.
But Filipinos know better than to celebrate early.
Because in a country where power can bend truth, the people now ask:
Will this be real justice — or just another performance?
