Plunder cased filed vs VP Binay and son

Vice President Jejomar Binay and his son, Makati Mayor Erwin Binay, were accused of plundering government funds in relation to an alleged over-priced multi-million peso carpark building in Makati City. Complainants Renato Bondal and Nicolas Enciso VI filed a 9-page complaint with the Office of the Ombudsman accusing the Binays and several Makati City officials of violating the Anti-Graft and Corrupt Practices Act. The complainants alleged that a P1.56 billion multi-story parking building was supposed to have cost only P245.56 million. The building was approved in 2007, when the Vice-President was still mayor of Makati. The Binay camp rejected the complaint and said it was politically motivated.
