Department of Justice Chief Prosecutor Jovencito Zunio released Riomel Lamores, suspected author of the "ILOVEYOU" virus. The National Bureau of Investigation hasn't finished going through the disks confiscated during the raid, and until more concrete evidence is at hand, Lamores cannot be held in custody. A further hearing has been set for May 19. Ramoles is the only suspect who has been taken into custody. His girlfriend, Irene de Guzman, still has not been apprehended and is still at large.
