One of the three 'Ma'am Arlenes' has left the country – Bureau of Immigration

Arlene Angeles Lerma, said to be one of the three “Ma’am Arlenes” alleged as big-time fixers in the judiciary, has left the country, according to the Bureau of Immigration.

dzBB reporter Cecil Villarosa reported that based on BI records, Lerma left the country on Wednesday via a Philippine Airlines flight destined for an Asian country.

A Supreme Court committee headed by Associate Justice Marvic Leonen is currently conducting a probe on the three “Ma’am Arlenes” who are said to be the judiciary’s own version of alleged pork barrel scam mastermind Janet Lim Napoles.

A “24 Oras” report aired Friday said one “Ma’am Arlene” is a clerk of court at the Court of Appeals while another previously worked in Malacañang. The third, meanwhile, is an influential figure at the Manila City Hall.

The “Ma’am Arlene” familiar to Manila City Hall employees is said to have close ties with Manila Vice Mayor isko Moreno. — VC, GMA News
