Ombudsman prosecutors ask SC to dismiss Honasan petition to dismiss ‘pork’ case

PROSECUTORS under the Office of the Ombudsman are asking the Supreme Court Third Division to dismiss the petition for certiorari filed by Sen. Gregorio Honasan 2nd in connection with the Sandiganbayan Second Division's denial of his plea for a case dismissal.

Honasan and other individuals are facing graft cases before the anti-graft court in connection with the alleged misuse of his Priority Development Assistance Fund (PDAF) or pork barrel allocation totaling P29.1 million in 2012.
