The Office of the Special Prosecutor (OSP) has announced that it is actively pursuing six corruption-related cases in court as the new legal year begins, with additional prosecutions expected before the end of 2025.
The announcement follows the reopening of the courts after their annual break, paving the way for the continuation of several high-profile corruption cases that have drawn national attention.
In a statement posted on X on October 19, 2025, the anti-graft agency said it is handling multiple cases on behalf of the public and hinted at filing more cases in the last quarter of the year.
