Palace fotog files libel suit
February 20, 2002 | 12:00am
The chief close-in photographer of President Arroyo filed yesterday a libel complaint against 25 of his fellow workers at Malacañangs photo section who earlier had denounced him for alleged irregularities.
Jerry Carual lodged the complaint with the Manila prosecutors office, claiming that the accusations against him were "malicious."
Press Secretary Noel Cabrera, acting on a two-page complaint against Carual, has relieved him as chief of the Palace photo section.
But since Carual works at the Office of the President as Mrs. Arroyos close-in photographer, with a rank of technical assistant, he remains in his post at Malacañang.
Cabrera designated Press Undersecretary Carmen Suva to head a panel that will investigate the 10-point accusations against Carual.
