MANILA, Philippines -- Army Brigadier General Danilo Lim, who is facing civilian and military court proceedings over the November 29 standoff in Makati City, will be moved back to police headquarters in Camp Crame from military general headquarters, a spokesman for the Armed Forces said.

This after the Makati City regional trial court branch 150 approved on Friday the general's motion to be returned to the Camp Crame custodial center from the Intelligence Service of the Armed Forces of the Philippines (ISAFP) compound in Camp Aguinaldo.

The transfer would be made on Saturday or Sunday, said Lieutenant Colonel Bartolome Bacarro, AFP public information office chief. "We will comply with the order of the court," Bacarro said.

On Wednesday, Lim was moved to Camp Capinpin in Tanay town, Rizal province, where he had been detained since 2006 over an alleged coup plot in February of that year, from Camp Crame, where he has been detained since after the November 29 siege by rebel soldiers on the Manila Peninsula hotel in Makati City. Lim sought the transfer so he could prepare for court martial proceedings over the 2006 incident, which are being held in Camp Capinpin.

But on Thursday, the military transferred him to ISAFP to make him face the Provost Marshal investigation into the hotel siege, which would determine whether or not he could be court martialled.
