Cebu priests barred from
celebrating 'Mass for Truth'
BY GERARD NAVAL
CARDINAL Ricardo Vidal, archbishop of
Cebu, has reportedly prohibited priests from celebrating
today's "Mass for Truth" at the University of San Carlos
which ZTE star witness Rodolfo "Jun" Lozada is scheduled
to attend.
Sr. Estrella Castalone, executive
secretary of Association of Major Religious Superiors in
the Philippines (AMRSP), in a phone interview, said Judy
Adriano, their organizer in Cebu City, told her "that the
priests have been prohibited from saying the mass for our
group by Cardinal Vidal."
She said she has yet to confirm it with
the Church officials of Cebu. The archdiocese of Cebu
could not be reached for comment.
THE joint Senate panel looking into the
anomalous $329 million broadband deal with China's ZTE Corp. is
a long way from wrapping up its investigation.
"There is still vital information that
senators know exists but has not come out on record. Thus, it
wouldn't be prudent to come out with a partial report just yet,"
Blue Ribbon chair Sen. Alan Peter Cayetano said.
But he said: "Any senator can submit his or
her recommendation or make a partial report and the committee
will consider it."
