A former treasurer in the municipality of Isabela, Negros Occidental was suspended for 60 days after she was charged administratively allegedly for serious dishonesty, grave misconduct, and malversation of public funds.
BACOLOD CITY –
Last month, Escarda reported to the police here that P3 million worth of cash and checks from the Treasurer’s Office of Isabela town were allegedly robbed from her house here. Nellas said that Escarda alleged that the officer-in-charge assigned to deposit the funds was preoccupied with other duties at that time.
Nellas said that Montilla cannot be held liable for Escarda’s actions, since the mayor never issued an authority on her and that the latter acted on her own accord.
