Tri-media personality Leo Lastimosa, accompanied by his lawyer Christian Llido, appeared before the Criminal Investigation and Detection Group in Central Visayas (CIDG-7) after he was asked to authenticate a recording of his radio interview with Senator Antonio Trillanes IV on Sept. 8, 2017.

Lastimosa, however, refused to affirm the authenticity of CIDG-7’s recording.
