[Title] => Desierto thanks solons, but is not yet off the hook
[Summary] => Ombudsman Aniano Desierto thanked yesterday the 122 congressmen who voted to junk the impeachment complaint that charged him with bribery.
But House leaders said Desierto is not yet off the hook because two House committees are set to start an investigation into the P5.3-billion tax credit scam involving the Chingkoe group of companies.
Rep. Marcelino Libanan (NPC, Eastern Samar), justice committee chairman, in a separate interview, agreed that Desierto is still not yet off the hook.

[Title] => House saves Ani from impeachment
[Summary] => The House of Representatives voted last night to grant immunity to beleaguered Ombudsman Aniano Desierto from impeachment by dismissing the first bribery- related case against him.
The dismissal of the case will mean that Desierto will be shielded from any new complaint for one year. He will retire as Ombudsman in August.
It also means that the second, more serious, tax fraud-related impeachment complaint filed by Rep. Oscar Moreno (Lakas, Misamis Oriental) and Bayan Muna Rep. Satur Ocampo is now dead in the water and will be consigned to the archives.

[Title] => Impeachment case vs Desierto not likely to prosper, Villar says
[Summary] => An impeachment case filed yesterday against Ombudsman Aniano Desierto is unlikely to prosper because of the complexity of the process, according to Senate President Pro Tempore Manuel Villar Jr.
Villar, who was Speaker of the House of Representatives when former President Joseph Estrada was impeached for several charges on Nov. 13 last year, said he was sure the resolution to impeach Desierto would be confined to the chamber.
