PCGG refutes Bongbong’s claims

THE Presidential Commission on Good Government (PCGG) has refuted claims of vice presidential candidate Ferdinand “Bongbong” Marcos Jr., saying his family abided with the court’s decision in corruption cases filed against them.

The PCGG, in a statement on Monday, noted that it has been receiving favorable decisions in cases that have been pending in various courts for decades, among which are the Arelma case involving $45 million forfeited in favor of the government, the Alfonso Lim case where Marcos cronies were proven to have abused their logging concessions and the ruling adverse to Fe Roa Gimenez, who was a close aid of former First Lady and now representative of Ilocos Norte province Imelda Romualdez Marcos.
