MANILA, (APP/AFP) – Former Philippine president
Gloria Arroyo was freed from detention from a military hospital
Thursday, after the Supreme Court dismissed her corruption
charges, her lawyer said.
“It’s a happy day today because she has just been
freed,” attorney Laurence Arroyo said as the 69-year-old former
leader, who served from 2001-2010, was released after serving
nearly five years in prison.
