Surigao del Norte Rep. Rober Ace Barbers on Sunday said Congress could grant Cassandra Ong’s request for jail detention if she continues not to cooperate in the Philippine offshore gaming operator’s investigation.
The House of Representatives is investigating Lucky South 99’s alleged link to illegal operations in the raided POGO hub in Porac, Pampanga. She is Lucky South’s authorized representative and signatory in the POGO’s application for an internet gaming license with the Philippine Amusement and Gaming Corp. in 2023.
In a letter dated 22 April 2024 addressed to the Honorable Chief Justice Alexander G. Gesmundo, Department of Justice Secretary Jesus Crispin Remulla urged the High Tribunal to transfer to Metro Manila criminal case numbers 9855-9857 which are handled by the said RTC. The SC found the said request to be meritorious and ordered the Tarlac court to transfer all the files related to the disputed cases to the Pasig City RTC.
