The anti-graft court Sandiganbayan ordered the arrest of former Cagayan de Oro City councilor President Elipe and his sister, Pristine Elipe-Quizon, for alleged corruption.

The Sandiganbayan’s Fourth Division has issued an order for the arrest of former CDO Councilor President Elipe, a son-in-law of former CDO Mayor Dongkoy Emano, based on the corruption case filed by City Administrator Dionnie Gersana.

Gernasa had accused 4 people – Elipe; Quizon, who then served as Elipe’s secretary; former vice mayor Caesar Ian Acenas; and City Council secretary Arturo de San Miguel – of grave misconduct, serious dishonesty, and conduct prejudicial for the best interest to serve.

Acenas and San Miguel had been absolved of the charges.
