Taguig police, NBI serve arrest warrant vs ex-Ako Bicol Rep Zaldy Co

Taguig City police and the National Bureau of Investigation (NBI) searched the Pasig City residence of former Ako Bicol Representative Zaldy Co in an attempt to serve an arrest warrant.

Authorities did not find Co at the property, and he remains at large.

The arrest warrant, issued by the Sandiganbayan Fifth Division, is in connection with graft, malversation, and falsification charges related to alleged misuse of funds for government flood-control projects.

During the search, several safe deposit boxes were discovered inside the residence.

Co, who previously chaired the House appropriations committee, is reportedly under investigation for corruption related to infrastructure spending.
