Sally Santos, owner of SYMS Construction, testified at the Sandiganbayan on April 8 that she delivered nearly P1.72 billion to former DPWH engineer Brice Hernandez from 42 projects. This occurred during the bail hearing for former senator Bong Revilla and others in a malversation case over a ghost P92.8-million flood control project in Pandi, Bulacan. The court questioned her credibility.
San Jose del Monte's local government unit in Bulacan took control of the city water district on May 5, 2026, amid ongoing service failures by PrimeWater. City Administrator Rizaldy Mendoza called it the 'only option' after silence from the company and its new owner, Crystal Bridges. The takeover lasts one year to address the crisis.

Prosecutors from the Sandiganbayan Third Division conducted an ocular inspection yesterday at the supposed site of a P92.8-million flood control project in Pandi, Bulacan, and found nothing. The project in Barangay Bunsaran, previously reported as 95 percent complete, is central to the malversation case against former senator Ramon Revilla Jr. Prosecutors described it as a 'ghost project'.
