MANILA, Philippines — The Sandiganbayan has ordered the forfeiture of the assets of a former police general worth P15.8 million that were found to be ill-gotten from 1991 to 2004. The court ordered the forfeiture of Mangila’s three lots in Quezon City and one each in Calamba, Laguna; Trece Martires, Cavite, and Calapan, Oriental Mindoro, with aggregate value of P9.103 million. “Mangila’s lawful income…was grossly insufficient to finance the acquisition of his assets in the aggregate amount of P15,806,403.65,” the court said. It cited a certification from the Quezon City business permit and licensing office stating that no business permit was issued in Mangila’s name. Graft probers said Mangila’s SP 2000 Restaurant and Videoke also reported losses totaling P3.64 million from 2000 to 2004.
