A Curious Turn of Events

Marines Colonel Ariel Querubin, who a few days ago was falsely reported to have been arrested, is back in the news. He is holed up in Fort Bonifacio, and has asked people to attend a vigil for him and his marines in the Fort. Cory Aquino, Tito Guingona, and other political personalities have heeded the call, but Cory Aquino was stopped in Pasong Tamo by a checkpoint on her way to the Fort. Meanwhile, TV reports showed that a throng of people have responded to Querubin's call.
