Bong Revilla surrenders at Camp Crame after arrest warrantMANILA, Philippines — Former senator Bong Revilla surrendered to the Philippine National Police on Monday evening, January 19, following the issuance of a warrant of arrest against him. Revilla arrived at Camp Crame in Quezon City shortly after 9 p.m., accompanied by acting PNP chief Jose Melencio Nartatez Jr. In an interview with reporters, Nartatez said Revilla voluntarily surrendered and would undergo standard booking and medical procedures. Earlier in the day, the Sandiganbayan Third Division issued a warrant of arrest against Revilla for malversation of public funds through falsification of public documents, an offense that is non-bailable. This marks the second time Revilla has been detained in connection with corruption allegations.
