Senator Erwin Tulfo, described in the report as a senator-judge, called out Davao City Assessor Engr. Jaime Adalin over how he responded to questions about his alleged travels to China, according to a video report carried by Dailymotion.

Tulfo is quoted as telling Adalin, "Ginagawa ninyong kengkoy ang inyong testimonya," which roughly translates to accusing him of making a joke of his testimony.

The available report, which is cut short, does not say when or where the proceedings took place, what Adalin said in reply, or what prompted the questions about his travels. DavaoNews will update this story as more details become available.
