Nahaharap ngayon sa anim hanggang walong taong pagkakabilanggo at diskuwalipikasyon sa gobyerno ang apat na dating opisyal ng Department of Agriculture (DA) dahil sa 40 sentimong sumobra sa inaprubahang badyet para sa mga materyales ng water supply system.

Sa 24-pahinang desisyon ng Sandiganbayan, nadiin sa kasong graft sa paggawad ng P2.5 milyong kontrata sina dating DA Region 11 officials Roger Chio, Romulo Palcon, Alma Mahinay at Godofredo Ramos.

Ayon sa Anti-Graft Court, nabigo ang mga akusado sa alegasyon ng prosekusyon na iginawad pa rin ng mga opisyal ang kontrata sa PZA Trading sa Davao City noong 2016 sa halagang P2,591,435.40, gayung dapat ay nadiskuwalipika ang kumpanya dahil ang approved budget of contract (ABC) lamang ng gobyerno ay P2,591,435.00.

Si Chio ang noo’y Regional Executive Director, habang si Palcon ang Regional Technical Director at Special Bids and Awards Committee (SBAC) Chairperson, samantalang, si Mahinay ang SBAC Vice-Chair at Chief of Finance Division at si Ramos ang noo’y

Administration Officer at SBAC Provisional Member.

“Accused Palcon, Mahinay and Ramos should have rated PZA’s bid as ‘failed,’ and disqualified it outright. Accused Chio, for his part, should not have awarded the subject contract to PZA, and instead, should have rejected PZA’s bid and declared a failure of bidding, on the ground that the Special Bids and Awards Committee failed to follow the prescribed bidding procedures,” ayon sa Sandiganbayan.
