Yulo, 62, gained prominence when his name was dragged into the “Boracay Mansion" controversy during the time of then president now Manila Mayor Joseph Estrada. The so-called Boracay Mansion, a house in New Manila, Quezon City, was among several mansions exposed in the impeachment probe against Estrada. The ousted president reportedly rented the Boracay Mansion from Yulo, who earlier bought the property from the Madrigal family.
