Former DPWH engineer testifies against Romualdez in graft case

Henry Alcantara, who previously served as district engineer at the DPWH-Bulacan first district engineering office, took the witness stand before the Sandiganbayan Third Division to present evidence in the case against Romualdez. Alcantara's decision to cooperate with prosecutors as a state witness marks a significant development in the ongoing legal proceedings against the former legislative leader. The testimony before the specialized anti-graft court represents one of the first opportunities for direct examination of key evidence in the matter. The case continues the government's efforts to address allegations of impropriety involving high-ranking officials. Further hearings are expected as the proceedings advance through the judicial system.
