DOJ preparing lookout order for ex-DPWH exec Roberto Bernardo
The Department of Justice (DOJ) has received a request to issue an Immigration Lookout Bulletin Order (ILBO) against former Department of Public Works and Highways (DPWH) Undersecretary Roberto Bernardo.
DPWH Secretary Vince Dizon requested the ILBO for Bernardo, who is accused of soliciting money from the Discayas in exchange for government project bids related to anomalous flood control projects.
Justice spokesperson Mico Clavano stated that the ILBO papers are being prepared for the Secretary's signature and will be transmitted to the Bureau of Immigration.
Clavano clarified that an ILBO is a monitoring mechanism and does not prevent travel, as only courts can issue such restrictions.
This is the third instance the DOJ will issue a lookout order against individuals implicated in anomalous flood control projects, with previous orders covering 43 DPWH officials and contractors.
