                    [Summary] => United States laws will prevent extradited Manila Rep. Mark Jimenez from fulfilling his promise to be back in the Philippines soon for his constituents, the National Bureau of Investigation (NBI) said yesterday.


Ricardo Diaz, chief of the NBI-International Police (NBI-Interpol) division, said US procedures will make it very difficult — if not impossible — for Jimenez to come back and be with his constituents in Manila’s sixth district, which covers Sta. Ana, Pandacan and Sta. Mesa.

Acting Justice Secretary Merceditas Gutierrez told reporters she was informed by Federal Bureau of Investigation legal attaché James Nixon that it may take some time before Jimenez can perform his legislative functions and attend to his constituents in the sixth district of Manila.

Manila Rep. Mark Jimenez said he decided to stick it out in the Philippines and fight extradition to the United States after being convinced that his nemesis, Hernando Perez, would not be fired as secretary of justice. Perez is on a month-long leave until Dec. 27.


But there were also speculations yesterday that Jimenez got cold feet amid reports that the Americans wanted to question him about drug trafficking in South America.
