菲律宾前众议长罗穆亚尔德斯被反贪法院停职90天 涉74.4亿比索基建回扣案
菲律宾反贪法院 Sandiganbayan 第三庭11月10日下令，前众议院议长罗穆亚尔德斯自收到命令之日起停职90天。法院书记官 Dennis Pulma 向媒体证实了这一裁决，罗穆亚尔德斯的律师团队随后表示正在研究法律选项。
罗穆亚尔德斯是菲律宾总统马科斯的表弟，代表 Leyte 第一选区，自9月14日起被关押在新奎松市监狱。菲律宾监察专员办公室9月7日以掠夺罪对他提起公诉，指控他与前众议员 Zaldy Co 在2022年至2025年间，从防洪与基础设施项目中收取74.4亿比索回扣，涉案交易至少15笔。
公共工程部一名前工程师此前作证称，纳入国家预算的444个项目、总值274亿比索被标注与罗穆亚尔德斯有关。罗穆亚尔德斯否认全部指控并作无罪抗辩，称他任内的防洪项目都按规定实施。
他的律师 Ade Fajardo 11月11日表示，停职是案件审理期间的预防性措施，不等于有罪认定。
Former Philippine Speaker Romualdez Suspended 90 Days by Anti-Graft Court in ₱7.44 Billion Infrastructure Kickback Case
The Third Division of the Sandiganbayan, the Philippines' anti-graft court, on November 10 ordered former House Speaker Martin Romualdez suspended from office for 90 days from his receipt of the order. Clerk of Court Dennis Pulma confirmed the resolution to reporters, and Romualdez's lawyers said they were weighing legal options.
Romualdez, a first cousin of President Ferdinand Marcos Jr. representing Leyte's first district, has been detained at the New Quezon City Jail since September 14. The Office of the Ombudsman filed a non-bailable plunder charge against him on September 7, alleging that he and former Representative Zaldy Co took ₱7.44 billion in kickbacks from flood-control and infrastructure projects between 2022 and 2025, across at least 15 transactions.
A former Department of Public Works and Highways engineer has testified that 444 projects worth ₱27.4 billion inserted into the national budget were tagged to Romualdez. Romualdez denies the charges, has pleaded not guilty, and says flood-control projects under his watch were implemented properly.
His counsel Ade Fajardo said on November 11 that the suspension is a preventive measure during the proceedings, not a finding of guilt.
