Suspended Cebu City Asst. Prosecutor Mary Ann Castro requested the court to appoint her as the administrator of all the properties owned by her estranged husband, Leodegreco Sanchez.
In her petition filed at the Shari’a District Court in Marawi City, the feisty prosecutor said Sanchez, the son of the late Cebu vice governor Leodegreco Sanchez, is incapable of managing the properties due to continuous illegal drug problems.
“On the basis of the medical findings of expert professionals, Mr. Sanchez is ‘no longer in his full control of mental and psychological faculties. The properties, real and personal, will likely diminish, if not entirely perish, unless an administratrix is appointed by this honorable court,” Castro stated in her petition.
Among the properties Castro wants to manage are Lactobiotics Worldwide Corp.; three parcels of land in Barangays Calawisan in Lapu-Lapu City and Barangays Pardo and Guadalupe in Cebu City; a Jaguar motorcycle; a black Ford Wildtrak; 14 other vehicles; radio stations DYDD, DYHH, DYZZ; and other properties owned by the Sanchez family abroad.
Sought for comment, Sanchez said the petition filed by Castro proved that the prosecutor is just after his family’s properties.
“Nag-apas lang gyud na siya sa among properties. (She just wants to take control our properties). At first, I thought I had feelings for her. But I later on found out that she’s after something else,” he said.
Sanchez said all his properties are inherited from his parents and that Castro couldn’t simply take them since they are not conjugal properties.
Asked if he is still using drugs, Sanchez said “In her heart, she (Castro) knows that I can’t do that.”
