Lawmakers believe a former official of the Philippine Health Insurance Corporation and the former executives of Cardinal Santos Medical Center could be held liable for plunder over a settlement case in 2011., Deputy Speaker Rodante Marcoleta zeroed in on the 2011 case involving the state health insurer and the San Juan City-based hospital’s then-owner, the Roman Catholic Archdiocese of Manila and its former manager, the Hospital Managers Inc .
"Papaano 'nyo i-account na balanse na P170 million? Sabi nga po namin, kahit isang sentimo, 'pag mawala sa pondo ng gobyerno, hahanapin po 'yon sapagkat pera ng tao po 'yon,"Marcoleta, however, could not ask questions directly to Asuncion. The House committees conducting the joint investigation had been wanting to invite Asuncion to the hearings, but nobody seemed to know where and how to contact him.
“Mr Chairman, I believe that we have to send the law enforcement agencies against Attorney Asuncion and we can direct the NBI to study the filing of plunder charges because, in this case, the investigation will need law enforcement people to locate Mr Asuncion if he does not want to appear before this body or if he is guilty of any [issues],” Remulla said.
