The legal representatives for Vice President Sara Duterte are finalizing their presentation of evidence and witnesses for the upcoming Senate impeachment proceedings. This follows the conclusion of the House prosecution panel's case. The defense intends to introduce a financial expert to contest allegations regarding 817.87 million pesos in purportedly undisclosed assets linked to Duterte and her spouse, Manases Carpio. These proceedings were prompted by testimony from forensic analyst Alexander Cabrera, who claimed that GenCorp Industries Inc.—a firm where Duterte holds shares—failed to report over one billion pesos in income across a four-year period. The defense team aims to systematically address these financial discrepancies as the impeachment trial moves forward in the Senate.
