Justice Secretary Vitaliano Aguirre said the ‘drug money’ involving Senator Leila De Lima could reach as high as P1 Billion after they found out that the P24 Million deposit slips were just the tip of the ice berg.

After further investigating the matter Aguirre said that they gathered up to P88 Million worth of deposit slips, this money is connected to De Lima and her involvement to the illegal drug trade in the New Bilibid Prison.
