No early freedom yet for Mrs. Arroyo, Aguas

FORMER president and now Pampanga Rep. Gloria Arroyo may have to spend more time under hospital arrest because the magistrates handling her case at the anti-graft court remain divided on whether she should be set out on bail.

On Thursday’s hearing, Associate Justice Efren De la Cruz, chairman of the Sandiganbayan First Division, assured Arroyo and former PCSO budget and accounts manager Benigno Aguas, that they are deliberating their motions to resolve petition to grant bail for the two accused.
