luxury cars of the Discayas were taken by the government for the auction

Recently, through another update about the flood control probe, Pres.
Bongbong Marcos announced that the arrest warrant versus Discaya will be out this week
due to a supposed P100-billion flood control project that was allegedly not built. His announcement came with an announcement that the Court of Appeals has already frozen several assets and properties possibly linked to anomalies.
The reported ‘surrender’ of Discaya came after her lawyer’s previous remarks that she is not hiding. Based on a
post
, she is willing to surrender most especially if there is an arrest warrant.
Several politicians were tagged in the flood control mess. One of them is former Senator
Bong Revilla who denied his supposed involvement in the flood control corruption
