Sandiganbayan upholds graft raps vs Duterte's top campaign donor

THE Sandiganbayan upheld the graft charges filed against Rep. Antonio Floirendo, Jr. of Davao del Norte in connection with a 2003 lease agreement entered into by family-owned Tagum Agricultural Development Co. (Tadeco) with the Bureau of Corrections even after he became a member of the House of Representatives.

In a six-page resolution, the anti-graft court said there was no need to look into matters “beyond the four corners of the information of the case.”
