MANILA, Philippines — Presidential Communications Undersecretary Lorraine Badoy  is facing yet another administrative complaint for her attacks on Filipinos she considers "enemies" of the government, with the latest filed by the first Filipino to be conferred a Nobel Peace Prize.

 

Maria Ressa, CEO of online news site Rappler, is suing the National Task Force to End Local Communist Armed Conflict spokesperson for alleged violations of the Code of Conduct and Ethical Standards of Public Officials and Employees, and for Conduct Prejudicial to the Best Interests of the Government and Misconduct. 

 

Badoy —  identified in some suits as Lorraine Badoy-Partosa — is already facing a string of administrative complaints related to her repeated attempts to link dissent and criticism to armed rebellion and terrorism.
