FORMER Autonomous Region in Muslim Mindanao (ARMM) governor Zaldy Ampatuan, one of the primary accused in the Maguindanao massacre case, is back in jail.
He was taken to the Quezon City Jail Annex in Camp Bagong Diwa in Taguig City at 2:17 p.m. after being discharged at the Makati Medical Center.
He and the more than 100 accused in the mowing down of 58 people in Maguindanao in 2009 will be sentenced on Thursday.
Quezon City Regional Trial Court Branch 221 Judge Jocelyn Solis-Reyes on Tuesday ordered Ampatuan returned to jail saying there is no more reason for him to remain in the hospital.
Ampatuan was taken to the Taguig Pateros District Hospital on October 21 when he suffered stroke. He was transferred to the Makati Medical Center in Makati City where he stayed for almost two months. JAN ARCILLA
