That’s who Sen. Panfilo Lacson thinks is responsible for the string of charges against him, mainly because he could be her strongest rival in  the 2004 presidential elections.


Appearing before the "Strictly Politics" talk show over ABS-CBN News Channel on Tuesday, Lacson minced no words and accused President Arroyo of directing the attacks against him.
