THE Sandigabayan on Wednesday postponed the arraignment of Senator Sherwin Gatchalian, his brother, Valenzuela City Rep. Weslie Gatchalian and Surigao del Sur Rep. Prospero Pichay over the Local Water Utilities Administration’s acquisition of a thrift bank in 2009.
The anti-graft court reset the arraignment to Oct. 20 as it has yet to resolve at least two pending motions filed by the lawmakers’ co-accused in the case. The legislators were originally scheduled to be arraigned on Aug. 15 but the court reset it to Oct. 5 to resolve pending motions.
