FORMER Light Rail Transit Authority (LRTA) Administrator Melquiades Robles on Sunday responded to reports that the Office of the Ombudsman had asked the Sandiganbayan to indict him and 12 others after finding probable cause for violation of the Anti-Graft and Corrupt Practices Act.

In a statement, Robles said the maintenance contact entered into by LRTA with the joint venture of CB&T Philippines Corp., PMP Inc. and Gradski Saobracaj GRAS (CPG) was “completely aboveboard” and that there was nothing irregular in the reduction of janitorial personnel contracted by the LRTA in 2009.
