Brice Hernandez petitions for protection amid ‘serious active threats’
Former DPWH Assistant District Engineer Brice Hernandez has filed a petition for a writ of amparo in a Pasay court, citing serious active threats against him.
His legal team is seeking a temporary protection order and for Hernandez to be considered for the Witness Protection Program.
Hernandez alleges these threats intensified after he testified before Congress regarding anomalies in flood control projects, implicating Senators Jinggoy Estrada and Joel Villanueva.
He is currently detained, having been moved from the Senate to Camp Crame's custodial facility after testifying before the House of Representatives.
Hernandez previously accused Senators Estrada and Villanueva of receiving kickbacks, allegations they have denied.
