NBI agents met Mabilog as soon as he stepped out of a Cathay Pacific plane that arrived at the Ninoy Aquino International Airport Terminal 3 at 11 a.m. yesterday.

He presented travel documents certified by the US consul to immigration officials and NBI agents.

According to the NBI, Mabilog was placed under arrest by NBI-National Capital Region (NCR) and International Airport Investigation Division (IAID) operatives.

He is facing charges of violating Republic Act 3019 or the Anti-Graft and Corrupt Practices Act, and RA 6713, also known as the Code of Conduct and Ethical Standards for Public Officials.
