In appealing to President Ferdinand Marcos Jr. to seek clemency for Mary Jane Veloso, an overseas worker from Nueva Ecija languishing in death row in Indonesia for smuggling heroin into that country, her father, Cesar, said that the two previous presidents were unable to help with the case. This is false.
Sa pag-apela kay Pangulong Ferdinand Marcos Jr. na humingi ng kapatawaran para kay Mary Jane Veloso, isang overseas worker mula sa Nueva Ecija na nasa death row sa Indonesia dahil sa pagpuslit ng heroin sa bansang iyon, sinabi ng kanyang ama na si Cesar na hindi nakatulong ang dalawang naunang presidente sa kaso. Ito ay hindi totoo.
