Sandiganbayan allows Mike Arroyo to go to Europe

But his wife won’t be with him, of course.

“The Sandiganbayan’s 5th Division, chaired by Associate Justice Roland Jurado, granted the motion of Mike Arroyo’s lawyers to allow the former First Gentleman to fly to Germany and other parts of Europe for a vacation from September 21 to October 10,” reports Dennis Carcamo on Philstar.com.

But that’s not the only trip he’s going on.

The report revealed that “the Sandiganbayan also ordered the Arroyo’s legal counsels to file a separate motion regarding his request to travel to Japan and Hong Kong on October 25.”

The report also noted: “Arroyo is facing corruption charges before the Sandiganbayan for the sale of alleged overpriced helicopters deal of the Philippine National Police back in 2009.”

In any case, this is the nth time that Arroyo has been out of the country.
