MANILA, Philippines — After going missing for over a week, Pharmally Pharmaceutical Corporation’s Krizle Grace Mago appeared before the House Committee on Good Government and Public Accountability hearing on Monday (October 4).
During the hearing, Mago recanted her earlier statement that the face shields her company delivered to the government were already expired.
“Wala pong expired na face shield. Ang instruction na rinelay ko sa warehouse personnel is to repack ‘yung mga face shield into 10 pieces per packaging,” she said.
“Then nagsabi sila maraming product certificates and I told them to choose just one,” Mago added.
Mago said the certificates must have been mixed up during the company’s inventory as part of their quality control protocol.
“I do admit that it was a pressured response. Given the amount of pressure I was under at that time, and rush of emotions…I was not in the proper frame of mind to think clearly,” Mago said regarding her prior admission when she appeared before the Senate Blue Ribbon Committee hearing on September 24.
“I was really traumatized by what happened and it really had a negative impact on my mental health po,” she told congressmen.
Mago also said that she was not coached to recant her previous claims.
The House of Representatives placed Mago under protective custody. —/mbmf
