MANILA, Philippines — The Sandiganbayan on Monday issued an arrest warrant against Uswag Ilonggo party-list Rep. Jojo Ang and former Sultan Kudarat Rep. Arnulfo Go as well as his two co-accused.

The anti-graft court Third Division said they found probable cause for the arrest of Ang and Go, along with the latter’s co-accused Allan Gayosa Bayani and Mario Abasolo Labrador.

According to the Sandiganbayan, state prosecutors indicted Ang for violation of Section 3(h) of Republic Act 3019 or the Anti Graft and Corrupt Practices Act.

Previously, Assistant Ombudsman Mico Clavano said state prosecutors filed 14 counts of graft before the Sandiganbayan against Ang.
