Trillanes eyes plunder raps vs Duterte, Go
The Philippine Star
|June 28, 2024
Former senator Antonio Trillanes IV announced plans to file plunder charges against former president Rodrigo Duterte and Sen. Bong Go, alleging corruption involving over P6 billion in infrastructure projects.
"This is in relation to the various infrastructure projects that were awarded to the father and brother of Bong Go when Duterte was still mayor of Davao City. The total amount involved exceeds P6 billion," Trillanes told The STAR yesterday.
The evidence includes Commission on Audit documents obtained during his term as a senator.
Trillanes said he would provide further details when the case is officially filed, as he did not want to preempt the actual filing.
He added that he aims to expose Duterte and Go's alleged corruption and hold them accountable.
