Timor-Leste’s Ministry of Justice has endorsed to its Court of Appeals the request of the Philippine government to extradite former Negros Oriental congressman and designated terrorist Arnolfo “Arnie” Teves Jr. to the country so he could face trial for several murder cases, including the killing of Negros Oriental Gov. Roel Degamo in March 2023.
