The Department of Justice (DOJ) has formed a special task force to investigate alleged corruption and bid-rigging in flood control projects, confirmed former NBI director Jaime Santiago.
Prosecutor General Richard Anthony Fadullon will lead the Public Works Corruption and Bid-Rigging Task Force, with the NBI’s Public Corruption Division as the lead investigator.
The task force is already gathering reports from regional offices, with a consolidated report expected by midweek.
Santiago emphasized that the investigation will be fair and cautioned against accepting all whistle-blower claims as the absolute truth.
The NBI is also prepared to testify in congressional hearings and assured that any implicated individuals will be held accountable.
