By The House of Representatives prosecution panel asked Friday the Senate impeachment court to reject Vice President Sara Duterte’s bid to dismiss the impeachment case against her, saying the severity of the charges require no less than a full and transparent trial and her conviction.
The prosecution panel made the assertion in its response to Duterte’s answer ad cautelam, wherein she called the verified impeachment complaint against her a mere “scrap of paper.”
Lawyer Regie Tongol, spokesperson of the Senate impeachment court, confirmed receipt of the House prosecutors reply at 1:38 p.m. Friday.
