Joc joc Bolante tells his tale of woe to US paper

President Arroyo’s former Agriculture Undersecretary Jocelyn “Joc-joc” Bolante isn’t talking to the Philippine media, but from a news report from the Chicago Tribune, it appears that he prefers telling his tale over his supposed fear of being assassinated if he returns to the Philippines.

The Chicago Tribune, in a July 14 edition, said, from an interview with Bolante, who is currently detained in Kenosha county jail, that the former undersecretary argued that the threats he has been receiving against him are “very real.”

Bolante was quoted as citing dozens of political murders in recent years that, according to US State Department reports on the Philippines, have included judges, journalists and priests.

Judge orders Joc-joc Bolante “removed” from USA

It’s the end of the line for former Department of Agriculture (DA) Undersecretary Jocelyn “Joc-joc” Bolante in his bid to seek political asylum in the United States on claims that he is being politically persecuted by the Philippine Senate to get back at President Arroyo.

The US Immigration Court not only threw out Bolante’s appeal by denying his asylum bid plus his application for withholding removal case, but US Immigration Judge George Katsivalis also ordered that the “respondent (Bolante) be removed from the United Sates to the country (Philippines)” as required by US law.

The former undersecretary alleged to be the brains behind the P728-million fertilizer scam, if he does not appeal his case before the US Supreme Court, will have to be deported to the Philippines.
