Contractor linked to Discaya-owned firm surrenders ahead of arrest warrant
An executive of a Discaya-owned firm, Ma. Roma Angeline Rimando, has voluntarily surrendered to Pasig City police.
Rimando's surrender came after President Ferdinand Marcos Jr. ordered the PNP to track her down, along with contractor Sarah Discaya and several DPWH officials.
These individuals are facing graft and malversation charges filed by the Ombudsman concerning a P96.5-million "ghost" project in Davao Occidental.
Rimando's legal counsel stated that her surrender was to preemptively avoid harassment and potential arrest.
As part of her surrender, Rimando also turned over her Philippine passport, demonstrating her commitment not to flee the country.
