前参议员邦·雷维拉因与布拉干一个9280万比索虚假防洪项目有关的不可保释贪污指控，返回奎松市监狱拘留。此前他在12月向司法部提交反要式誓章否认贪污指控，这标志着在他猪肉桶丑闻无罪释放不到十年后案件升级。
前参议员邦·雷维拉此前在2013年猪肉桶丑闻中被判无罪，他在桑迪干巴延反贪法院发出不可保释逮捕令后，于1月21日向菲律宾国家警察投案。他现与同伙布赖斯·埃尔南德斯和杰伊皮·门多萨一起被拘留在奎松市帕亚塔斯，就布拉干一个检察官称从未存在过的9280万比索防洪项目一事。 此次拘留源于早前报道的同一贪污调查，雷维拉于12月10日提交反要式誓章否认涉案，并提供证据反驳与SYMS建筑公司相关的指控。尽管有其辩护，该案仍推进至逮捕阶段，凸显了对雷维拉等前官员公款滥用持续审查，他曾任参议院公共工程委员会主席。 这一进展重新引发了对腐败案件问责的讨论，建立在对幽灵项目和立法资金处理的持续调查基础上。
