Sec. Remulla delays trip to France
MANILA, Philippines — Interior Secretary Jonvic Remulla is delaying his trip to France to block the asylum bid of former lawmaker Zaldy Co.
Remulla cited two reasons for the slight delay, another deadly shooting in a school in Banga, South Cotabato that left the shooter, a Grade 9 student, and two other students dead and eight others injured.
Another factor are documentary requirements from the International Criminal Police Organization or Interpol, but Remulla did not provide further details on these documents.
“I would have to delay my trip to France by two weeks or three weeks to finish this,” Remulla said at a news briefing in Camp Crame yesterday.
Remulla earlier said he will meet with Interpol officials in Lyon to follow through on the government’s request for a red notice alert on Co, who is facing warrants of arrest for plunder, graft and malversation before the Sandiganbayan.
Remulla will report to President Marcos on Monday about the guidelines he is crafting with the Department of Education on school safety measures.
