Suspended Bureau of Corrections (BuCor) Director General Gerald Bantag and Bucor Deputy Security Officer Ricardo Zulueta were charged as principals in the murder of broadcaster Percival “Percy Lapid” Mabasa, and the alleged middleman in the killing Jun Villamor.

Calls have been made for Bantag and Zulueta to turn themselves in, even as the Mabasa family thanked the government for filing the criminal complaints against the suspects.

Meanwhile, the Department of Budget Management (DBM) has allocated P206 billion for inclusion in the 2023 national budget for cash transfer and assistance programs aimed at helping the poor.

President Ferdinand “Bongbong” Marcos Jr. prepares to leave for two major meets – the Association of Southeast Asian Nations (ASEAN) Summits in Cambodia and the Asia-Pacific Economic Cooperation (APEC) Leaders’ Meeting in Thailand.
