Wearing a gray jacket, Sebastian casually walked to his seat with his
hands in his pocket accompanied by Bilibid security at the start of the
hearing.
Bilibid inmates who testified in the House inquiry alleged that
Sebastian was De Limas favored drug lord who raised campaign
funds for the senator from the drug trade.

During the previous hearing last Thursday, Justice Secretary Vitaliano
Aguirre II said Sebastian was advised by his doctors not to attend the
hearing.
Aguirre today said Sebastian was not among those requested to be
granted immunity from suit in connection with the testimony before
the congressional inquiry.
Aguirre said this was because the Department of Justice did not
arrange for Sebastians presence in the committee.
We have no participation in connection with his appearance this
morning, Aguirre said.
Sebastian was accompanied by his lawyer Eduardo Arriba.
De Lima has said Sebastian was a government asset in the Dec. 2014
raid that cracked down on lavish quarters of Bilibid drug lords. CBB
