MANILA, Philippines — Sen. Panfilo Lacson on Monday, June 29, said those who had direct dealings with former Public Works Secretary Manuel Bonoan must be “quaking in their boots.”

Lacson, a former chair of the Senate Blue Ribbon Committee (BRC), made the remark after Ombudsman Jesus Crispin Remulla announced that Bonoan, who is facing a plunder case before the Sandiganbayan over the alleged flood control scam, is set to become a state witness.
