Judge Silverio Mandalupe is set to issue a warrant of arrest against Edgar Matobato anytime today or this week.
This is after Matobato or any representative failed to appear on his behalf during the arraignment this morning for the case of illegal possession of firearms filed against him last 2014.
The arraignment was scheduled before the sala of Municipal Trial Court in Cities, Branch 3.
Matobato,who had tagged President Rodrigo Duterte in summary Killing during his time as mayor,is
accused of carrying a Colt .45 caliber pistol outside of his home without a permit or valid authority on
June 19,2016
'' There is reasonable ground to believe that a crime has been committed and that the accused is
probably guilty,'' according to Assistant City Procecutor Oliver Saniel
Matobato was also earlier tagged in the abduction of alleged terrorist Sali Makdum.
