MANILA (Mabuhay) -– The Makati Regional Trial Court Branch 150 has reset the arraignment of businesswoman Janet Lim Napoles to September 23 at 1:30 p.m.
Makati RTC Branch 150 Judge Elmo Alameda granted the motion of the camp of Napoles which sought the postponement of the September 9 arraignment.
Napoles is facing serious illegal detention case filed by key pork barrel scam whistleblower, Benhur Luy.
Napoles’ camp sought the postponement of the arraignment since the businesswoman still has pending motions with the Court of Appeals and the Makati RTC Branch 150.
Napoles is currently detained at Fort Santo Domingo in Laguna.(MNS)
