                    [Title] => Defense apologizes for ‘Delia’ fiasco
                    [Summary] => Two members of President Estrada’s defense panel apologized yesterday to the Senate impeachment tribunal for the controversial manner of their presentation of the real Delia Rajas.


Lawyers Philip Sigfrid Fortun and his brother Raymond Parsifal made the apology in a response to an order that they explain why the impeachment court should not cite them for contempt.

Franklin Drilon urged the impeachment court yesterday to order defense lawyers Sigfrid and Raymund Fortun to explain why they should not be cited for contempt for subjecting the court to a "futile and pointless exercise" last Jan. 8.

Meanwhile, Sen. Anna Dominique Coseteng indicated that she would also file a similar motion against prosecutor Raul Gonzalez for virtually calling her a liar regarding the presence of a prosecution witness in the gallery the other day.

A woman identified by the defense as the "real Delia Rajas" said she could not possibly have entered into any bank transactions involving P50 million because she was only a cook.
