Comelec Chair Bautista's 'Hidden Wealth' Links to VP Robredo, Patricia Bautista Coincidentally Reveals

Patricia Paz “Tish” Bautista's revelation of the alleged ill-gotten wealth of her husband, Comelec Chairperson Comelec (Commission on Elections) Chairman Andres Bautista is far from over. And while supporters of the opposite camps have their own speculations on the issue, a new discovery apparently links to no less than Vice President Leni Robredo.



During the interview of Patricia Bautista at ANC Headstart, she showed to host Karen Davila the documents as supporting evidences for her corruption claim against Andy Bautista. This includes passbooks, several envelopes containing cash, which are supposed salaries for PCGG (Presidential Commission on Good Government).employees.

According to Tisha Bautista, she asked Andy about these cash envelopes (or payslips), and that he allegedly said they were old documents. She randomly showed Davila one of them, and it was focused on the camera so that the TV audience can also view its details. As you can see, the said cash envelope bears the name – Howard Vitas (all in capital letters).

On Tuesday night, a screenshot of the said cash envelope was posted at For the Motherland - Sass Rogando Sasot Facebook page, which bears the caption, “What a coincidence! The name of the husband of Gaile Robredo, relative of Jesse Robredo, is HOWARD VITAS!” As we all know, Jessie is the late husband of VP Leni Robredo.

To confirm Sass' claim, we at PNC searched the names 'Howard Vitas' and 'Gaile Robredo' on Google, and we found out that he and Gaile were married in Naga City. We also learned that Gaile Robredo-Vitas is a dermatologist, and a niece of the late DILG Secretary Jessie Robredo, and even campaigned for VP Leni for the May 2016 elections.



However, we cannot find any social media account of Howard Vitas, except for his un-updated Twitter account. Nevertheless, we found an August 2010 Philstar news report about a baby christening, wherein Howard Vitas and Andy Bautista were both among the godfathers, while Andy's wife, Tish-Cruz Bautista was one of the godmothers.
