DILG chief: Interpol Blue Notice out vs Zaldy Co
An Interpol blue notice has been issued against former Ako Bicol Party-list Representative Zaldy Co.
The notice is in connection with alleged anomalous flood control projects in Oriental Mindoro for which Co and 15 others face charges.
The Department of the Interior and Local Government believes Co may have traveled using another passport and possibly a different name.
According to Interpol, a blue notice is issued to gather more information about an individual's identity, location, or activities relevant to a criminal investigation.
The Sandiganbayan issued a warrant of arrest against Co and others on November 21, and seven individuals have since been arrested.
