Senate panel gets hold of Luy’s files

After days of waiting, the Senate blue ribbon committee finally received on Wednesday the controversial files of Benhur Luy, the principal witness to the pork barrel scam.

National Bureau of Investigation (NBI) Director Virgilio Mendez handed committee chairman Sen. Teofisto Guingona 3rd a sealed CD copy. The CD contains detailed information on the alleged recipients of pork kickbacks and commissions, circumstances about the disbursements, distribution and allocations of the pork barrel budget to fraudulent and non-existent foundations and non-government organizations.
