The House of Representatives prosecution panel has formally requested that the Senate impeachment court enforce the sub judice rule regarding recent public comments made by Vice President Sara Duterte. This call follows critical remarks from the Vice President that questioned the credibility of the judicial proceedings. Representative Zia Alonto Adiong, acting as the spokesperson for the House prosecutors, emphasized the necessity of this measure on Thursday. The panel argues that such statements could potentially influence or undermine the ongoing impeachment process, necessitating a stricter adherence to rules that limit public discourse on active legal cases to ensure the integrity of the court's deliberations.
