MANILA, Philippines — The National Bureau of Investigation (NBI) on Monday said it already ordered its intelligence agents to assist in finding Pharmally Pharmaceutical Corp. executive Krizle Grace Mago.
This developed after the Senate blue ribbon committee tapped the NBI to help locate Mago, who became out of reach by the Senate since her damning revelation against her company.
“The NBI has directed its intelligence and regional service personnel to help in locating Krizle Mago of Pharmally,” the NBI confirmed to reporters following the Senate’s request.
