PCGG to file civil charges against Imelda’s ex-aide for the recovery of paintings

THE Presidential Commission on Good Government (PCGG) on Tuesday said it will file a civil action case against the former aide of Imelda Marcos, Vilma Bautista after a jury in New York State Supreme Court found her guilty for illegally conspiring to possess and sell valuable work of arts acquired by the former first lady during her husband’s presidency.

PCGG chairman Andres Bautista said the Commission will file a civil action case against Ms. Bautista and her two nephews for the recovery of Claude Monet’s lily painting and other artworks which are owned by the government.
