00:00Senator Jinggoy Estrada faces a new set of cases of plunder and graft over his alleged involvement in the flood
00:06control corruption scandal.
00:08Former Department of Public Works and Highway Secretary Manuel Bonoan was also charged before the anti-graft court Sandigan Bayan
00:14on Thursday, May 28.
00:16Our evaluation shows that substantial public funds were deliberately funneled into designated infrastructure projects in exchange for predetermined commission fees
00:28or kickbacks.
00:30The filing against Estrada and Bonoan came weeks after the Ombudsman confirmed that it received the Department of Justice's resolution
00:36to file cases against the two.
00:38Plunder is non-bailable so the two might be detained if the court issues a warrant of arrest against them.
00:43Meantime, Estrada says he will exhaust all legal remedies. This is the third time he has been slapped with a
00:49plunder charge.
00:50He was charged with plunder and graft over the pork barrel scam. Estrada was acquitted of plunder in 2024 but
00:56his graft cases are still pending as of this reporting.
