PHILSTAR: Sandiganbayan grants GMA plea to visit parents' graves
- The Sandiganbayan yesterday granted the request of former President and now Pampanga Rep. Gloria Macapagal-Arroyo to visit her parents' graves on All Saints' Day tomorrow. The former president filed a motion before the court, saying she wants to pay her respects to her deceased parents, former President Diosdado Macapagal and Evangelina Macapagal. Arroyo said since she has not been convicted of any crime, she is "presumed to be innocent even in respect of the present offense charged against her before this Honorable Court."
