The Department of Justice has finished its preliminary investigation into a money laundering complaint against former Bamban, Tarlac mayor Alice Guo and others for allegedly transferring P7 billion from fraudulent sources. The case, involving Philippine Offshore Gaming Operators (POGOs), awaits a resolution on whether to proceed to court. Prosecutors allowed the case to advance without counter-affidavits from all accused. Guo’s legal team seeks dismissal of the charges, citing lack of evidence. The resolution’s timeline remains uncertain.
