00:00Authorities are now holding Christopher Lau, a former budget official,

00:05who was accused of violating the government's formal contract during the pandemic.

00:11Jun Veneracion was arrested.

00:16Almost a week after the warrant of arrest was issued,

00:19PNP-CIDG arrested Atty. Lloyd Christopher Lau in Davao City at 11 a.m.

00:26Undersecretary of Procurement Service of the Department of Budget and Management,

00:30President Rodrigo Duterte, was arrested.

00:33That's why he became the center of the Senate's investigation

00:36in violation of the formal contract of the Pharmaceutical Company during the COVID pandemic.

00:42Yesterday, the people in his house watched him but he didn't go home.

00:46That's why he was arrested just a while ago, around 11 p.m.

00:51He went under the booking procedure in the office of CIDG Region 11

00:56but he was expected to pay P90,000,

00:59equivalent to the case of violation of the Anti-Graft and Corrupt Practices Act.

01:03The case is equivalent to the violation of some government officials,

01:07including former Health Secretary Francisco Duque III,

01:11who was charged with losing more than P1 billion in funds during the COVID pandemic

01:16from March to December 2020.

01:19All those who have a warrant to arrest should be jailed.

01:23They should go through the booking process and they should be jailed

01:28until they wait for the court's order to release them again because of a spiel.

01:36Now that Lau is under arrest, Senator Riza Ontiveros is hoping that he will admit

01:41who his big boss is who is behind the corruption of billions of pesos in COVID-19 funds.

01:48For GMA Integrated News, Jhon Veneracion, Akatutok, 24 Horas.
