NBI poised to file raps vs. officials in ‘insertion scam’

The National Bureau of Investigation (NBI) is set to file criminal charges against government officials involved in the “insertion scam”, which Justice Secretary Leila de Lima described as congressional insertions in the General Appropriations law for projects not funded by the regular Priority Development Assistance Fund (PDAF) of lawmakers.

She said that the NBI will file the fourth batch of criminal charges against those who funneled pork funds through insertions to dubious non- government organizations of jailed businesswoman Janet Lim-Napoles.
