The Department of Justice (DOJ) has not yet acted on the complaint filed against members of Sanggunian, Iglesia ni Cristo’s (INC) highest administrative council.
Prosecutor General Claro Arellano said they had yet to assign a prosecutor to handle the case almost a week after former INC minister Isaias Samson Jr., his wife and son filed a complaint against members of the Sanggunian.
Samson and his family named Glicerio Santos Jr., Radel Cortez, Bienvenido Santiago Sr., Mathusalem Pareja, Rolando Esguerra, Eraño Codera, Rodelio Cabrerra and Maximo Bularan in their complaint for harassment, illegal detention, threats and coercion.
