Abad kinasuhan ng plunder

Rudy Andal - Pang-masa

MANILA, Philippines - Sinampahan ng kasong plunder sa Office of the Ombudsman si Budget Sec. Florencio Abad kaugnay sa pagpapatupad ng Disbursement Acceleration Program (DA) na idineklara ng Korte Suprema na labag sa Konstitusyon.

Inihain ni Atty. Bonifacio Alentajan, dating pangulo ng Philippine Constitutional Association (Philconsa), ang plunder charges dahil nilabag umano ni Abad ang plunder law, usurpation of legislative power and authority na nakasaad sa ilalim ng Article 177 ng Revised Penal Code.

Naging basehan ng reklamo ni Alentajan ang pamumudmod umano ni Abad ng P50 milyon sa 19 senador na bumoto para sa conviction ni da­ting Chief Justice Renato Corona sa impeachment nito noong 2012 na mismong ibinulgar ni Sen. Jinggoy Estrada sa kanyang privilege speech noong Sept. 25, 2013.

Hiniling din nito sa Ombudsman na patawan ng preventive suspension si Abad habang iniimbestigahan ang reklamo laban dito.
