The DOJ emphasized that no one will be spared from accountability, regardless of title or position.

“No one is above the law, and no position, title, or influence will shield anyone from accountability. Those named will be required to answer, under the rule of law, the serious allegations now standing against them,” the department declared.

To ensure impartiality, the DOJ said it is ready to turn over all case files and supporting documents to the Independent Commission on Infrastructure (ICI) for a holistic review.

Justice Secretary Jesus Crispin “Boying” Remulla reinforced the message with a firm reminder:
“The DOJ will not blink. We will see this through to its rightful conclusion, guided only by evidence, sworn testimony, and the dictates of justice.”
