Gov. Panlilio charges Pineda for plunder
|
|
The Pampanga governor maintains that this move has
nothing to do with politics in the province
|
|
PLUNDER charge was filed on Monday by Gov. Eddie
Panlilio of Pampanga before the Office of the Ombudsman against
suspected jueteng lord Rodolfo “Bong” Pineda after the latter
has been linked with the jueteng conviction of former President
Joseph Estrada.
In an 11-page complaint-affidavit by Fr. Eddie
Panlilio, governor of Pampanga, he said that Estrada was convicted
beyond reasonable doubt by the Sandiganbayan for the crime of
plunder and it is a fact that former Gov. Luis “Chavit” Singson
of Ilocos Sur disclosed that jueteng money came from Pineda, hence,
mere probable cause would warrant the filing of charges against
Pineda.
