              MANILA, Philippines - The Court of Appeals (CA) on Thursday dismissed the information in the criminal cases filed against Senator Panfilo Lacson in the abduction and murder of Salvador "Bubby" Dacer and Emmanuel Corbito.

              In a February 3 ruling, the CA nullified and set aside the issuance of the arrest warrant issued by the Regional Trial Court (RTC) of Manila on February 4 and July 23, 2010.

              CA Justice Ramon Bato Jr. penned the 80-page unanimous ruling.

              Dacer's daughters, Carina Dacer, Sabina Dacer-Reyes, Emily Dacer-Hungerford, and Amparo Dacer-Henson filed the case against Lacson, who went into hiding after being implicated in the double murder case.

              The Dacers can still appeal the decision. - Report from Ina Reformina, ABS-CBN News
