Napoles now in Fort Sto. Domingo

MANILA, Philippines – Businesswoman Janet Lim-Napoles is now at Fort Santo Domingo in Santa Rosa, Laguna. The convoy carrying Napoles left the Makati City Jail around 5:00 am Sunday and arrived about 6:00 am in Fort Santo Domingo. Napoles is the businesswoman behind the alleged P10-B pork barrel scam. She and her brother, Reynald Lim, face serious illegal detention charges filed by key whistleblower Benhur Uy. Last Friday, the Makati Regional Trial Court ordered Napoles’ transfer, citing security reasons. In a press briefing Sunday, PNP Special Action Force commander Dir. Carmelo Valmoria said there is a doctor in the camp in case of a medical emergency. -- News Now, ANC, September 1, 2013
