The Department of Justice (DOJ) is considering seeking the deportation of suspended Negros Oriental Rep. Arnolfo Teves Jr., who is tagged as one of the masterminds in the assassination of Gov. Roel Degamo. CDNDigital READ:
“Yes, that’s actually a possibility,” said DOJ assistant secretary spokesperson Mico Clavano in an interview with OneNews on Wednesday.According to Clavano, deportation is the “most logical process” to bring Teves home since the country has no extradition treaty with Cambodia.
Teves has not yet been impleaded in the criminal complaints over the assassination of Degamo, which also killed eight civilians and injured at least 18 others, on March 4. Without being indicted by prosecutors, the case against Teves could not be elevated to the courts, which have the authority to issue a warrant of arrest.
