Bong Revilla spends Christmas Eve with family

Detained former Senator Ramon “Bong” B. Revilla, Jr. was allowed to spend several hours at home with his family in Cavite on Christmas Eve, according to a report on GMA’s “24 Oras Weekend” on Sunday.

This comes after the Sandiganbayan First Division partially granted Revilla’s motion to celebrate the holiday season with his family.

He was allowed to leave the Philippine National Police Custodial Center in Camp Crame from 11 a.m. to 9 p.m. on December 24.

His ex-aide Richard Cambe, who is also detained, was also allowed to visit his family.

Revilla was charged with graft and plunder in connection with the pork barrel fund scam in 2014. — Jon Viktor D. Cabuenas/BM, GMA News
