AMLC OBTAINS JUDGMENT FORFEITING PROPERTIES OF ILLEGAL DRUG TRAFFICKERS (2)

Muntinlupa, Philippines - On 24 February 2025, the Regional Trial Court of Muntinlupa, Branch 203, rendered a judgment ordering the forfeiture of properties of Marie Ann Maglasang, which were found to be involved in illegal drug trafficking. 

The case stemmed from a buy-bust operation conducted by the Philippine Drug Enforcement Agency (PDEA) Regional Office VII in Camote Island, Cebu. During the operation, 7,048.7573 grams of shabu and various financial documents were recovered. 

The said judgment covers all remaining properties not included in the partial judgments of forfeiture that the AMLC has previously obtained in the same case. The properties covered by the said order include five (5) real properties located in Muntinlupa City, two (2) bank accounts, and one (1) insurance policy. 

This favorable judgment affirms the government’s firm stance against money laundering and related criminal activities. This underscores the AMLC’s commitment to safeguard the integrity of Philippines’ financial system.
