Sandiganbayan upholds rulings vs Revilla, CoThe anti-graft court’s Sixth Division also denied former congressman Zaldy Co’s attempt to prevent it from calling him a fugitive. MANILA, Philippines — The Sandiganbayan affirmed its earlier decision that denied the appeal of former senator Ramon Revilla Jr. and a former official of the Department of Public Works and Highways (DPWH) to cancel their graft cases for their involvement in the flood control scandal. The anti-graft court’s Sixth Division also denied former congressman Zaldy Co’s attempt to prevent it from calling him a fugitive. "Aallowing the case to be remanded for reconsideration or entertaining prohibited pleadings at this stage would cause unwarranted delays,” it said. — Aubrey Rose Inosante
