MANILA, Philippines — Presidential Communications Undersecretary Lorraine Badoy, also a spokesperson for the government's anti-communist task force, could be suspended after three separate administrative complaints were filed against her before the Office of the Ombudsman on Wednesday.

 

The complaints filed by 26 activists, religious groups, teachers, and student leaders accuse Badoy — a medical doctor by training but who now speaks for the government's National Task Force to End Local Communist Armed Conflict — of violating the Anti-Graft and Corrupt Practices Act and the Code of Conduct and Ethical Standards for Public Officials and Employees.

 

"By utilizing the infrastructure of state media for purposes of influencing the minds of voters vis-a-vis the May 9, 2022 elections, Undersecretary Badoy has besmirched the reputation of her fellow public servant in the process," the petitions read.
