SENATOR LEILA DE LIMA MAY ARREST WARRANT NA

The top leaders of the House of Representatives are considering issuing an arrest warrant or filing several complaints against Senator Leila de Lima should she fail to explain if she had truly barred her former security aide and alleged bagman from testifying before the House justice panel.Speaker Pantaleon Alvarez and Majority Leader Rodolfo Fariñas said in separate interviews on Monday.





The justice committee has yet to issue the show cause order against De Lima, but once it has been issued and De Lima ignores the order, Alvarez said he would approve an arrest warrant for her."It's up to the committee. Ngayon (Now), if the committee will request for the issuance of a warrant of arrest, I think I will issue it," said Alvarez.





Ayun kay Sen. Pres.Koko Pimintel,hindi exempted ang mga senador sa criminal liability at hindi nila haharangin ang pag-aresto at pagkulong kay De Lima sa regular na kulungan.
