News peg: Janet Lim-Napoles has been subpoenaed by the Senate to attend a Senate hearing (presumably by the Blue Ribbon Commitee) this Thursday Sept. 26, 2013; and for this purpose, a letter has been sent to the Ombudsman who is conducting a preliminary investigation of the complaint for plunder filed by the DOJ based on evidence on the so-called P10 billion pork barrel scam.
Can accused Janet Lim-Napoles (accused in the serious illegal detention case and respondent in the plunder case) attend the Senate hearing this Thursday, Sept. 26? No. Nope. Nopey. Not without a court order. She is under detention by order of the RTC Makati. Only the RTC Makati can order her removed from her place of detention. You can try serving the subpoena on her guards but it will not be honored. Don’t try citing the guards for contempt because it is the RTC Makati which has jurisdiction over her person.
