NBI operatives arrested fugitive Iloilo blogger Manuel “Boy” Mejorada who was twice convicted for libel. | nestorburgosINQ

A source privy to the arrest confirmed the NBI operation but asked not to be named for lack of authority to issue any statement.

Mejorada, former Iloilo provincial administrator, has eluded arrest after the Supreme Court on September 2, 2019 ruled with finality in affirming a 2017 Court of Appeals decision which upheld his conviction for libel conviction by the Pasay Regional Trial Court. The RTC had found Mejorada guilty for four counts of libel in relation to his social media and blog posts accusing Drilon of involvement in alleged irregularities in infrastructure projects in Iloilo.
