Trial was set after the anti-graft court dismissed the motion filed by Rama and his group to reconsider the denial of their first motion to junk the charges filed against them.
Aside from Rama, also to undergo trial are bids and awards committee (BAC) members William Surbano, Gorgonia Gonzales, Sergio Zurita, and Nilo Gorgonio.
In their motion for reconsideration, Rama and his co-accused reiterated that the dismissal by the Supreme Court (SC) of the charges filed against their co-accused, North Cotabato Gov. Nancy Catamco and Perzebros Company representative Pompey Perez, must also apply to them.
