Alberto Agra (born April 7, 1963) is a Filipino lawyer who previously served as acting Justice secretary of the Republic of the Philippines .

Career
[ edit ]
Agra was appointed by President Gloria Macapagal Arroyo as acting solicitor general and acting justice secretary in 2010. Three years later, the Supreme Court declared his dual appointment as unconstitutional.[2]
During his tenure as justice secretary, he dropped charges against two suspects in the Ampatuan massacre case, ARMM governor Zaldy Ampatuan and his brother Akmad Ampatuan.[3] [4]
His department also failed to protect Suwaib Upham, a key witness and self-confessed participant in the massacre who sought witness protection and was later murdered in Maguindanao .[5]
Two days before the end of his term, he dismissed charges against government personnel accused of human trafficking .[6]
On 2016, he was appointed by President Rodrigo Duterte as chairman of the board of Philippine Reclamation Authority.[7]
