abs-cbnNEWS.com | 03/24/2009 4:00 PM The Bangko Sentral ng Pilipinas (BSP) on Tuesday filed with the Department of Justice its third case of syndicated estafa against Legacy Group owner Celso G. delos Angeles, Jr. and other officers, this time for fraudulently siphoning off P500 million worth of deposits and investments from the Rural Bank of Bais Inc.
This is the sixth syndicated estafa case filed against Legacy officers and Celso de los Angeles, the fifth case lodged at the justice department, and the fifth case filed by the BSP. Several depositors, the Securities and Exchange Commission, and the Philippine Deposit Insurance Corp have filed various criminal and civil cases in recent months following the closure of the 12 rural banks and 3 pre-need firms under the Legacy Group.
Government agencies are required to course their legal actions through the justice department, which would then compile these cases. Once the justice department completes its preliminary investigations, it could file these cases in court and eventually attach the assets of De los Angeles and the other respondents.
