Contractor couple cooperating with probe into flood control projects

Contractor couple Pacifico and Cezarah Discaya are cooperating with investigations into alleged anomalous government-funded flood control projects, their lawyer confirmed.

Lawyer Cornelio Samaniego III stated the couple is not hiding and is in the Philippines, contrary to earlier suggestions that some involved individuals may have left the country.

This statement comes amid a Senate blue ribbon committee probe, with the committee chairperson noting that some personalities linked to the projects are already in America.

Public Works and Highways Secretary Vince Dizon has requested the Department of Justice to issue an immigration lookout order against several officials and contractors involved in the probe.
