MARCOLETA ARRESTED

JUST IN: Sen. Rodante Marcoleta has been arrested by personnel of the Philippine National Police after the Sandiganbayan Third Division issued a warrant of arrest against him and his three co-accused in connection with the plunder case filed by the Office of the Ombudsman.

He will be transferred to the Quezon City Jail in Payatas, according to Associate Justice Karl Miranda.

The case stems from allegations that Marcoleta failed to declare campaign donations received during the 2025 midterm senatorial elections.

The #SupremeCourtPH En Banc, during its session today, May 20, 2026, acted on G.R. No. 278747 (Rodrigo Roa Duterte and Senator Ronald “Bato” M. Dela Rosa v. Hon. Lucas Bersamin, et al. ) and denied the prayer for a temporary restraining order (TRO) and/or status quo ante order (SQAO) filed by Senator Ronald ���Bato” M. Dela Rosa, in a vote of 9-5-1.

In Senator Dela Rosa’s manifestations, he prayed for a TRO and/or SQAO to prevent the Department of Interior and Local Government, the Department of Foreign Affairs, the Department of Justice, the Philippine National Police, the National Bureau of Investigation, the Bureau of Immigration, the Armed Forces of the Philippines, and the Criminal Investigation and Detection Group from arresting him on the basis of any warrant from the International Criminal Court, red notice and diffusion from the International Criminal Police Organization, or any foreign judicial or quasi-judicial instrument without a Philippine judicial warrant.

The full Resolution and the Separate Concurring and Dissenting Opinions of the Members of the Court will be uploaded to the Supreme Court website on Monday, May 25, 2026.

The Supreme Court only decided on the prayers for interim relief. The main issues raised by the parties in their pleadings and motions are yet to be resolved in the main case.

A copy of the available pleadings may be downloaded from the Current Cases section of the Supreme Court website.
