Probe into Revilla flood control case at advanced stage, says Clavano
Assistant Ombudsman Mico Clavano stated that the preliminary investigation into the flood control-related case involving former Sen. Ramon "Bong" Revilla Jr. is at an advanced stage and could soon be submitted for resolution.
This update follows Ombudsman Jesus Crispin Remulla's earlier pronouncement that arrest warrants could be issued next week for senators implicated in anomalies concerning the country's flood control projects.
Clavano mentioned that the Revilla case may have one more hearing before submission.
He also indicated that some cases might be filed before the Sandiganbayan this week.
Revilla is among ten individuals recommended by the Independent Commission on Infrastructure (ICI) for possible criminal prosecution related to the flood control project anomalies.
