MANILA, Philippines — The National Bureau of Investigation (NBI) personnel who were earlier cited in contempt at the Senate have been turned over to the investigative agency.
This was confirmed by both Senate President Alan Peter Cayetano and NBI Director Melvin Matibag after the two had a private discussion.
The nine NBI personnel were cited in contempt after they chased Sen. Bato Dela Rosa inside the Senate building in an attempt to arrest the senator.
