By Sheila Crisostomo (The Philippine Star) Commission on Elections (Comelec) chairman Sixto Brillantes disclosed yesterday that former president and now Pampanga Rep. Gloria Arroyo Macapagal-Arroyo and her husband Jose Miguel Arroyo could face life imprisonment if they are convicted of rigging the 2007 elections in Maguindanao. Brillantes said tampering with the results of the 2007 polls and other elections thereafter constitutes electoral sabotage under Republic Act 9369 or the Poll Automation Law. |
