AMLC hails win against Napoles in money laundering case
The Philippine Star
|August 24, 2024
The Anti-Money Laundering Council (AMLC) hailed a major legal victory as Manila Regional Trial Court Branch 24 convicted Janet Napoles of money laundering, in relation to the Priority Development Assistance Fund (PDAF) scam.
The decision, dated July 12, sentenced Napoles to seven to 14 years in prison and imposed a fine of P16 million. The case was initiated by a complaint filed by the AMLC with the Department of Justice in 2013.
AMLC executive director Matthew David said the conviction underscored the government’s commitment to pursue justice in cases of large-scale corruption.
“Napoles’ conviction is a significant victory in the government’s fight against corruption. It serves as a powerful reminder that the AMLC, in collaboration with the other government agencies, is committed to prosecuting individuals involved in the plunder of public funds,” he said.
