Top officials of Megawide Corp. vowed to exhaust all legal remedies to clear their names and dispute allegations they violated the Anti-Dummy law in connection with the operations of the Mactan-Cebu International Airport (MCIA).
Megawide downplays arrest warrant: ‘Procedural ‘ lang daw
“The case is now in court. With the help of our legal team, we can finally clear our names and disprove all the baseless allegations against us,” Megawide said in a statement.
The group issued the statement after posting bail on November 26 following the issuance by the Regional Trial Court of Lapu-Lapu City (Branch 68) of the warrants of arrest against the officials of Megawide and subsidiary GMR Megawide Cebu Airport Corp. (GMCAC).
Megawide, headed by its chairman and president Edgar Saavedra, is seeking the dismissal of the case for lack of probable cause and due process, among others.
“We will not allow this case to distract us from our mission of providing first-world services and facilities to passengers of the Mactan-Cebu International Airport. We also assure the public that it is business as usual in the country’s award-winning airport terminals,” Megawide said.
GMCAC won a 25-year concession to operate and upgrade MCIA in 2014. It transformed MCIA into the Philippines’ only internationally-acclaimed and award-winning airport.
