Excerpts from the Inquirer article Aquino slay convict backs drivers tale (August 24, 2006): Martinez said Ochoco told him that the late dictator Ferdinand Marcos wanted Aquino, who was returning home from exile in the United States, to replace him.

If Ninoy becomes President, we will go to the hills, Martinez quoted Ochoco as telling him in Filipino.

Ochoco allegedly told Martinez that Aquino should not be allowed to take over from Marcos.

Martinez said Ochoco gave the thumbs-down sign to indicate that the former opposition senator should be killed.
