MANILA — Senator Robin Padilla expressed his regret following the recent incident involving his wife, Mariel Padilla, receiving an IV drip in his Senate office, pledging that such an occurrence will be prevented from happening in the future.
“I never intended to disregard the existing security protocols of the Senate, especially by showing disrespect to our institution,” Padilla stated in letters addressed to Dr. Renato DG Sison, Director of the Senate’s Medical and Dental Bureau, and (Ret) Lt. Gen. Roberto T. Ancan, the Senate Sergeant-at-Arms.
“I want to emphasize that my wife had no intention of disregarding the prevailing regulations of the Medical Bureau,” he added.
“You can rest assured that such incidents will not be repeated.”
