ng nasabing grupo at mga heavy equipment ay tuloy-tuloy na itong pumasok sa lupain
na aking pinamamahalaan at binuldoser na nila ang mga punong kahoy, punong niyog

malalaking makinarya na ginagamit sa pagmimina at pagsira sa lupang pansakahan
na mahigit sa apat-napung (40) taon naming pinagyaman. Sa kabila ng aming
pagpapatigil ay nagpatuloy pa rin ang mga ito sa pagmimina sa pangunguna ni
POLDING BORJA at isang nagngangalang LEO na kilala sa tawag na BOTSOK, na
ayon sa pagpapakilala nila sa amin ay mga tauhan sila ni GOV. EDGARDO A.
TALLADO;
Paragraph 11. Na, sa aking pagkaka-alam ay si Gobernador Edgardo Tallado ang
nag-papamina sa aking lupain na pinamamahalaan, at ito ay naririnig namin mula sa
mga trabahador ng mina, at batay na rin sa ginawang pagpapakilala sa amin nina

kay ANTONIO DE JESUS at ayon kay ANTONIO DE JESUS ay kanya nang binigyan
ng authorization si GOV. EGAY TALLADO na minahin o magmina ng bakal sa lupain
na aking pinamamahalaan; bilang patotoo sa pagkakaunawaan na ito ni ANTONIO

pinagyaman at sinasaka na pinagkukunan naming ng aming ikinabubuhay ay

Gallardo said she came to know of Tallado’s involvement from Antonio “Tony” de
Jesus, heir of her former landowner, Felixberto de Jesus. “It was Tony who told me in a text
message that he had given Governor Tallado the authority to mine on his land. He said he
signed an agreement with him,” said Gallardo. She still keeps De Jesus’s text messages
as evidence

Gallardo said De Jesus and even employees of the mining facility,
particularly a certain Polding Borja and Leo delos Angeles, who led the digging of
the open pit, often referred to Tallado in conversations as the owner of the

“Gallardo claimed that Tallado was using the Chinese firm as a front
for his illegal mining activities”. The National Bureau of
Investigation has since come in, investigating the allegations
against Tallado. “We lost everything, our livelihood and my
children’s houses. All that is left is this house my husband and I
built, and a few square meters of land,” said Gallardo”.
