Despite of this, the former First Lady apparently continued to follow her normal daily routine.
She even attended a party amid the court’s decision and netizens slammed her because of this.
Her daughter, Ilocos Norte Governor Imee Marcos refused to comment about this but she expressed that it is still a good thing to be a Marcos.
So why is Imelda Marcos not yet arrested?
According to Philippine National Police chief PDG Oscar Albayalde, they haven’t been notified regarding the release of the arrest warrant.
However, they are considering the age and health condition of the 89-year-old politician in not ordering CIDG personnel to wait outside the Congress, unlike what they did to Senator Antonio Trillanes IV.
On the other hand, Albayalde said that he will order the CIDG director as soon as the arrest warrant is released.
In line with this, Facebook Page Voice of Millennials, pointed out why Imelda Marcos should be arrested.
The post said that if a 94-year-old woman was arrested and went through the mugshot and everything, then the former First Lady should do the same.
Here is the caption of the post.
“Mas matanda si Lola Flaviana Sagapsanan, 94-anyos ng Dapitan City, Zamboanga del Norte kaysa Lola Imelda Marcos, 89-anyos, pero si Lola Flaviana na inakusahang nagpapatay sa kanyang anak arestado, pinagsuot ng damit preso, mug shot, kulong agad nuong Aug. 7, 2018 kasi wala siyang koneksyon sa gobyerno, pero si Lola Imelda, guilty na sa pagnanakaw sa pera ng bayan na $200-M (higit P10 bilyon), kinaaawaan pa ng Du30 gov’t…ni Sen. Cynthia Villar at PNP kaya hindi hinuhuli, kasi matanda na raw, tsk !”
