House panel issues show-cause order to Harry Roque's wife over POGO probe

The House Quad Committee has issued a show-cause order to Mylah Roque, wife of former presidential spokesperson Harry Roque, for failing to attend the POGO investigation.

Mylah Roque denies being an incorporator of Lucky South 99, a POGO linked to an illegal hub in Pampanga, and called Representative Ace Barbers an "abusive individual" for the claim.

Barbers rejected Mrs. Roque's claims, stating that Harry Roque, not Mylah, is linked to Lucky South 99.

Barbers stated that Mylah Roque's name surfaced because she signed the lease agreement for a wanted Chinese IT expert.

He also pointed out that Biancham Holdings and Trading, Inc., owned by the Roque family, leased their property to fugitive Cambodians involved in financial scams.

Harry Roque admitted that he and his wife Mylah are shareholders of Biancham Holdings, which has alleged links to Lucky South 99.

He also admitted partly owning a house in Benguet, owned by PH2 Corp. which was primarily owned by Biancham, that was raided as it was allegedly used by foreigners linked to Pogos.
