LOOK: Palace releases mugshots of 6 arrested in flood control mess
Malacañang on Monday made public the mugshots of six individuals arrested for their alleged involvement in anomalous flood control projects.
In a Facebook post, the Presidential Communications Office released the booking photos of Department of Public Works and Highways (DPWH) officials Gerald Pacanan, Gene Ryan Altea, Ruben Santos, Dominic Serrano, Juliet Calvo, and project engineer Felisardo Casuno.
“Inilabas na ang mugshots ng mga pangunahing naaresto na sangkot sa flood control anomaly projects, habang nagpapatuloy ang pinaigting na operasyon upang papanagutin ang lahat ng responsable,” the Palace said.
(The mugshots of the primary suspects arrested in the flood control anomaly projects have been released, while intensified operations continue to hold all those responsible accountable.)
Last week, President Ferdinand Marcos Jr. announced that arrest warrants had been issued for the six, several other DPWH officials, former Ako Bicol Rep. Zaldy Co, and directors of Sunwest Construction and Development Corporation.
The cases stem from corruption and malversation of public funds charges filed by the Office of the Ombudsman before the Sandiganbayan over the allegedly anomalous P289-million flood control project in Oriental Mindoro.—MCG, GMA Integrated News
