In a resolution dated June 17 and released Friday, the SC referred the case of Veloso to the Court of Appeals (CA) for hearing and resolution.<\/p>\n

The Leyte lawmaker is seeking the \u201crectification, suppression or destruction of the database, information or files kept by respondents, which erroneously lists herein petitioner (Veloso) as an alleged \u2018narco-politician\u2019 as read to the media by President Rodrigo Duterte from a list (on) the evening of March 14, 2019.\u201d<\/p>\n

In its resolution, the SC directed the CA to conduct a summary hearing within 10 days from receipt of the resolution. It also directed the respondents to file a verified written return of the writ (answer) together with supporting affidavits.<\/p>\n

The CA was ordered to decide on the petition within 10 days from the submission of the case for resolution.<\/p>\n

In his petition, Veloso also pleaded to the SC to order the PNP to immediately release to him his two security details previously approved by the Commission on Elections.<\/p>\n

Also in the list were Cipriano Violago Jr., mayor of San Rafael, Bulacan; Erlon Agustin, mayor of Camiling, Tarlac; Siegfred Betita, mayor of Carles, Iloilo; Jed Patrick Mabilog, former Iloilo City mayor; Roderick Alcala, mayor of Lucena City, Quezon; Mamaulan Abinal Mulok, mayor of Maguing, Lanao del Sur; Mayor Roberto Malijao Luna Jr., mayor of Lingig, Surigao del Sur; Jamal Jamal Abinal Pangandamun, vice mayor of Maguing, Lanao del Sur; and Rep.
