Arnolfo Teves Jr. FILE PHOTO The House ethics panel may be 'forced' to consider the 'most extreme' action against Negros Oriental Rep. Arnolfo Teves Jr., which is expulsion, if he remains a no-show after his 60-day suspension ends. Rep. Felimon Espares, chair of the House ethics and privileges committee, said they would meet next week if Teves would not report to the House for work by July 31. Lawmakers will discuss if the House panel will acquire jurisdiction over Teves for the third time for his refusal to return to the Philippines and resume his duties as congressman.
