AMLC freezes 1,193 bank accounts of contractors, congressmen
December 20, 2025
|The Philippine Star
The Anti-Money Laundering Council (AMLC) has widened its financial investigation into the controversial flood control projects, securing a new freeze order covering the bank accounts of major contractors and a member of the House of Representatives allegedly linked to the irregularities.
Officials of the Independent Commission for Infrastructure and the Department of Justice present to the media the P71 million surrendered to the government by individuals linked to alleged ghost flood control projects.
The Court of Appeals on Thursday ordered the freezing of 1,193 bank accounts believed to be associated with the contractors and the lawmaker, whom a source told The STAR is Rep. Edwin Gardiola of the Construction Workers Solidarity party-list.
The court found sufficient grounds to connect the assets to potential violations of Republic Act 3019 or the Anti-Graft and Corrupt Practices Act.
