The justice secretary said that while it was “very raw information,” he had nevertheless ordered the NBI to follow up on it.
“In the milieu we have now, it’s good to look at all information. With so many speculations, it’s important that we look at different information dispassionately,” he said.
Gonzalez said he had been told that Lee was connected to the ABS-CBN reality show “Pinoy Big Brother.”
“He could be a witness, or if he is involved in the crime, he could be an accomplice,” Gonzalez said.
Gonzalez the other day ordered the NBI, an agency under the Department of Justice, to back the police inquiry into the shooting of Failon’s wife.
“To me, the most important aspect is: Why did they clean the premises?” Gonzalez said, referring to the bathroom where Failon’s wife allegedly shot herself and that was cleaned up before the police arrived at the house.
Lee, the founder and president of real estate developer Globe Asiatique Realty Holdings Corp., laughed off insinuations that he had any role in the shooting of Failon’s wife.

He said he had rushed to the house because another friend, radio man Angelo Palmones, told him of what had happened to Failon’s wife.
