Delfin Lee may face large scale estafa case

MANILA - Justice Secretary Leila de Lima said businessman and Globe Asiatique owner Delfin Lee may also be charged with large scale estafa if more complainants will come out against him. Lee and four others are already facing a syndicated estafa case filed in 2010. Large scale estafa, like syndicated estafa, is a non-bailable crime. Meanwhile, the Department of Justice will proceed with the preliminary investigation of three more syndicated estafa complaints against Lee. This is after the Supreme Court lifted a temporary restraining order issued by the Pasig Regional Trial Court on the probe. MORNINGS@ANC, March 11, 2014
