PHILSTAR: DICK PASCUAL - DEL LIMA POWERS NIPPED: Thank God, Ombudsman Conchita Carpio-Morales has stopped DOJ Sec Leila de Lima from investigating cases involving high government personnel, particularly those involving plunder and graft. It was the second major jurisdictional setback for de Lima who has been accused of megalmoaniac tendencies for encroaching on the turf of constitutional bodies. Earlier this month, the justice secretary was taken a back by an en banc decision of the commission on Elections that disapproved the dropping of charges against South Cotabato election supervisor Lilian Radam despite her admitting involvement in massive poll fraud in her area in the 2007 senatorial elections.
