"The continued US custody of Pemberton is a grave insult to Philippine sovereignty," said the CPP. Yesterday, US ambassador Phillip Goldberg insisted that the US will retain custody of Pemberton throughout the trial and appeals process.
"Isang grabeng insulto sa soberanya ng Pilipinas ang patuloy na kustodiya ng US kay Pemberton," anang PKP. Kahapon, iginiit ni Phillip Goldberg, ambassador ng US na mananatili sa US ang pagkustodiya kay Pemberton sa buong proseso ng paglilitis at apela.
