TWO companions who traveled with dismissed Bamban, Tarlac Mayor Alice Leal Guo — her sister and her business partner — arrived back in Manila after they were arrested in Jakarta, Indonesia and repatriated by the authorities there.Guo's sister, Sheila, 40, and her business partner Cassandra Li Ong, 24, arrived at the Ninoy Aquino International Airport Terminal 1 Thursday afternoon, escorted by four Bureau of Immigration officers.
Sheila Guo and Ong arrived on Flight PR540 with 183 passengers on board. Sheila was put in a wheelchair after she fell at the Immigration area.Both are being sought by the House and Senate. Sheila is facing allegations of helping her sister escape, while Ong was one of the incorporators of Lucky South 99, the illegal online gambling operation in the former mayor's town.Security was tight as the two women were whisked out of the Terminal 1 building and later brought to a waiting van.
