The anti-graft court’s fifth division said government prosecutors "deprived" Laurel, former chairman of the National Centennial Commission, of his right to file an appeal because he was only given a copy of their decision on the same day he was indicted.

This possibility was confirmed by Trade and Industry Secretary Manuel Roxas II last week.


According to Roxas, Asiakonstrukt, although a minority shareholder in FCCC, actually has the veto power over corporate decisions of FCCC which constructed the Expo Filipino in Clark.

Ombudsman Aniano Desierto found former Vice President Salvador Laurel’s motion to submit an "extended counter-affidavit" on the case of graft charges filed against him over the Philippine Centennial Exposition in Pampanga "impressed with merit," Laurel said yesterday.


Laurel detailed and replied to the accusations leveled against him "point by point" in his motion to file an extended counter affidavit which he filed before the Office of the Ombudsman on July 5.

Laurel cited recent Supreme Court decisions declaring that private corporations and private citizens cannot be investigated by the Ombudsman or tried by the Sandiganbayan. 


He pointed out that three out of four original respondents have already been absolved by Ombudsman Aniano Desierto, which automatically renders "untenable" any charge of conspiracy.
