De Lima files complaint vs 10 prosecutors in dismissed drug cases in Muntinlupa
Manila Bulletin
|August 15, 2025
Rep. Leila de Lima, former senator and justice secretary, has filed a formal complaint against 10 government prosecutors behind the four cases filed against her during the Duterte administration.
In February 2017, the Department of Justice (DOJ) filed three drug cases against her before Muntinlupa courts. Another case, for disobedience to summons, was filed in Quezon City.
The DOJ originally filed illegal drug trading against De Lima in Muntinlupa but changed it to conspiracy to commit illegal drug trading.
All four cases were dismissed by courts and De Lima was detained at Camp Crame for nearly seven years.
