                    [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.
