FORMER Caloocan mayor Reynaldo Malonzo has filed a graft complaint against former mayor and now Caloocan 1st District Rep. Oscar Malapitan before the Office of the Ombudsman.

Malapitan, who served as Caloocan representative from 2004 to 2013, was accused of violating Section 3 (e) of the Anti-Graft and Corrupt Practices Act.

Malonzo alleged that Malapitan acted with partiality in endorsing Kalookan Assistance Council Inc. (KACI) to be the conduit of Priority Development Assistance Fund (PDAF) for his projects.

Besides being ineligible for PDAF transfer, Malonzo alleged that KACI had unliquidated cash advances from 2006 to 2007.

Malonzo said that the Ombudsman had, in 2019, dismissed charges over alleged anomalous utilization of Malapitan's PDAF for 2009.

"A scrutiny of the assessments made under the liabilities of the parties in the said order would desperately show that they seriously missed some important issues," he said in his complaint.

Malapitan said on Tuesday that the complaint was politically motivated.
