First Lt. Lawrence San Juan confirmed yesterday the existence of Oplan Hackle, which the Armed Forces of the Philippines (AFP) exposed early this year and was allegedly designed to overthrow the government.


In a 13-page affidavit obtained by The STAR, San Juan detailed how the members of the Magdalo group were recruited, how the Oakwood mutiny in July 2003 was planned, their escape from detention, and their life on the run until his arrest in Batangas a few months ago.
