Metro Manila (CNN Philippines, December 16) The Office of the Ombudsman has ordered a six-month preventive suspension without pay for 43 more immigration personnel over the so-called ‘pastillas’ bribery scheme.
In a ruling dated Dec. 3, the Ombudsman said “there is sufficient ground to preventively suspend all of the respondents considering there is a strong evidence showing their guilt.”
“Respondents’ administrative infractions are duly supported not only by convincing testimonies but also by official documents,” it added.
The suspension order was based on a complaint for grave misconduct, gross dishonesty, and conduct prejudicial to the best interest of service filed by the National Bureau of Investigation last month.
