MANILA, Philippines — The antigraft court won’t let Mary Ann Maslog get away this time.

The Sandiganbayan has rejected for the second time the bail petition of Maslog, one of the accused in the 1998 textbook scam case who last year was found to be alive after she faked her death in the last five years to escape prosecution

In a resolution on Dec. 19, 2024 but released to the public only this week, the Sandiganbayan Second Division said Maslog’s motion was “bereft of merit” and pointed out that her “history of absconding, failure to voluntarily appear before the court and use of spurious identities prove a high probability of flight.”
