The Office of the Ombudsman has ordered the dismissal of suspended Bamban Mayor Alice Guo for grave misconduct.In a 25-page decision, the Ombudsman dismissed Guo from service with forfeiture of all her retirement benefits as well as perpetual disqualification from public office.According to the Ombudsman , Guo’s acts such as her involvement in the raided Philippine Offshore Gaming Operator hub in her locality showed a “willful intent on her part to violate the law or disregard established rules.
This was based on the complaint filed by the Department of the Interior and Local Government accusing Guo and other local officials of committing grave misconduct, serious dishonesty, gross neglect of duty, and conduct prejudicial to the best interest of the service.GMA News Online has sought comment from Guo’s camp but has yet to receive a response as of posting time.Aside from this, Guo is facing a human trafficking complaint in relation to the raided POGO hub before the Department of Justice.
