菲律宾反贪法庭第五分庭驳回了参议员晶格伊·埃斯特拉达针对其涉及防洪工程回扣贪污案所提出的保释动议。
在7月24日作出并于7月28日公布的裁决中，助理法官赫内尔·吉托指出，该动议缺乏法律依据，且提交时间过早。法官扎尔迪·特雷斯佩斯和玛丽安·科尔普斯-马尼亚拉克对此表示同意。法院指出，埃斯特拉达可以在日后提交正式的保释申请，届时将允许检方提交证据。这是埃斯特拉达面临的第三批贪污指控；他此前曾在与非法赌博丑闻和公款挪用丑闻相关的案件中被判无罪。埃斯特拉达因涉及2024年至2025年期间的工程项目，面临一项贪污指控和两项腐败指控。此次裁决是在法院早先做出相关法律行动后做出的，其中包括拒绝了他出席副总统莎拉·杜特尔特弹劾审判的请求。
