Garcia set to file ethics complaint vs detractor

COMMISSION on Elections (Comelec) Chairman George Erwin Garcia on Thursday vowed to file an ethics complaint against his detractor soon after he gets hold of the results of the ongoing investigation over claims by a member of the House of Representatives that he owns 49 offshore bank accounts with a combined deposit of at least $15.2 million or almost P1 billion.

At the same time, Garcia appealed to both Speaker Martin Romualdez and Senate President Francis Escudero not to allow their chambers to be used by people who disseminate lies to and destroy the credibility and integrity of other people.
