The Office of the Ombudsman has found probable cause to indict Senators Juan Ponce Enrile, Jinggoy Estrada and Ramon Bong Revilla Jr., as well as businesswoman Janet Lim-Napoles, with plunder in connection with the P10-billion pork barrel scam.
At a press briefing on Tuesday, Assistant Ombudsman Asryman Rafanan said plunder charges will also be filed with the Sandiganbayan against several government and non-government organization (NGO) officials for their participation in the scam.
Rafanan said Ombudsman Conchita Carpio Morales approved the recommendation of the five-member special panel that looked into the complaint filed by the Department of Justice and the National Bureau of Investigation in three joint resolutions Monday.
The announcement came less than two hours after Senator Teofisto Guingona III, head of the Senate blue ribbon committee, announced in a separate briefing that his panel has recommended plunder charges against Napoles and the three senators also in connection with the anomaly.
Meanwhile, in a phone-patch interview on GMA News TV's News TV Live, Revilla's legal counsel, lawyer Joel Bodegon, said they will file a motion for reconsideration with the Office of the Ombudsman, noting their pending petition before the Supreme Court.
"Hindi man lang nila isinantabi 'yung Supreme Court dahilan may naka-schedule na oral argument sa April 22 sa Baguio City doon sa aming application for TRO (temporary restraining order) para pigilin ang preliminary investigation ng Ombudsman," he said. — KBK/JL, GMA News

Jinggoy: Clearly kami ang pinagplanuhan, naging biktima ng sabwtan. It's sychronized APRIL FOOLS day operation: Senate then Omb presscon. I did not receive any amounts from Napoles or Tuazon or any person associated with her or any NGO.

:-\well, hopefully may mangyari nga dyan sa demanda na yan... sa aking palagay hindi magpa-prosper yan... kelan pa nangyari ang may pera ang nakulong...

Finally. And this should be done to the rest of the plunderers as well whether within the Pnoy administration or not.
