The city prosecutor’s office filed the charges against Marianita Corpuz, Elizabeth Bughao and Shirley Jacobe with the Regional Trial Court in Tugbok district.
The three election officers reportedly altered the minutes of voting and counting at Precinct No. 397-A at the Mintal Elementary School.
The election documents they submitted showed that a certain Mary Joy Manlud, a watcher of an SK candidate, was present in the precinct from 9 a.m. to 8:30 p.m. on election day.
However, Manlud, who filed the complaint, claimed that she arrived at the polling precinct only at about 4 p.m. — Edith Regalado
