Rep. Thomas Dumpit Jr. is facing a third batch of pork barrel-related charges before the Sandignbayan, this time in connection with the alleged misuse of P14.55 million in 2008. ADVERTISEMENTThe cases arose from the alleged diversion of Dumpit’s Priority Development Assistance Fund (PDAF) proceeds to livelihood projects for farmers, which turned out not to have been implemented. Besides Dumpit and Antonio, also charged were Nabcor president Alan Javellana, administrative and finance director Rhodora Mendoza, and general service unit heads Romulo Relevo and Ma. State firm National Livelihood Development Corp. (NLDC) was involved in this set of cases as the implementing agency for the KKAMFI projects.
