(UPDATES) DISMISSED Bamban, Tarlac mayor Alice Guo posted bail of P540,000 before a Valenzuela City court on Friday but will be transferred to a jail in Pasig City, where she is charged with human trafficking, an offense where no bail is allowed.

Judge Elena Amigo-Amano of the Valenzuela City Regional Trial Court Branch 282 postponed Friday's arraignment of Guo, after her lawyers filed a motion to quash because the graft cases against her were filed in Capas, Tarlac.
