Multiple outlets report that the camp of Leyte Rep. Martin Romualdez says former Public Works Secretary Manuel Bonoan may be under pressure to testify in the multibillion-peso flood control corruption case. In a statement cited by Inquirer.net and Philstar, Romualdez spokesperson Ade Fajardo says Bonoan could have been tasked to become a state witness, potentially to implicate Romualdez. The reports characterize this as an allegation made by Romualdez’s side rather than a finding by investigators or courts. Fajardo also points to health and medical considerations as the likely basis for the task assigned to Bonoan, according to Inquirer.net. Both accounts frame the claim as coming from Romualdez’s camp, with no additional details provided in the summaries about the evidence, the status of Bonoan’s potential testimony, or any response from Bonoan, the prosecution, or other parties involved. The coverage focuses on the allegation that pressure may be involved as the case proceeds.
