The Supreme Court has voided former president Rodrigo Duterte's 2018 dismissal of overall deputy ombudsman Melchor Arthur Carandang. The court awarded Carandang backwages and retirement benefits up to the end of his 2020 term. The Third Division ruled on January 29, 2026, that the president lacks disciplinary authority over a deputy ombudsman.

The Office of the Ombudsman has charged Sarah and Curlee Discaya with graft and malversation over a flood control project in Bulacan, alleging their firm gained P53 million through questionable means.
Rep. Martin Romualdez's lawyer stated there is no evidence linking him to ghost or substandard flood control projects eyed for plunder charges by the Ombudsman. Ombudsman Jesus Crispin Remulla said they are preparing cases against Romualdez and former Senate President Francis Escudero. Romualdez expressed willingness to cooperate.

A Discovery Bay resident has lodged a complaint with Hong Kong's ombudsman over authorities' handling of a proposal to allow unrestricted taxi access to the resort-style seaside community. The plan would revoke existing taxi-prohibited zones, introduce four new taxi ranks, and permit point-to-point drop-off and pickup. Residents say the proposal was advanced without adequate consultation, and a petition to the Transport Department signed by 1,700 people calls for proper public input.
Ombudsman Boying Remulla stated that his investigators are facing difficulties in obtaining the Statements of Assets, Liabilities, and Net Worth (SALNs) from House members. This matters because the Ombudsman, as the country's top anti-graft agency, is probing corruption in flood control projects where some lawmakers are allegedly involved. SALNs provide summaries of public officials' finances, properties, and liabilities, which can highlight potential irregularities.

Ombudsman Boying Remulla alleged that Sen. Joel Villanueva's lawyer, Ramon Esguerra, was behind claims that former DPWH engineer Henry Alcantara planned to recant his testimony on flood control kickbacks. Remulla suggested this was an attempt to gain leverage in a P150 million graft case. Alcantara's lawyer confirmed no recantation occurred.
