00:00A new statement was issued by the National Bureau of Investigation or NBI to Vice President Sara Duterte
00:07to explain about her allegations against President Bongbong Marcos.
00:12In the House of Representatives, someone filed an impeachment complaint against the Vice President.
00:16First news is from Chino Gaston.
00:19Sixteen complainants from civil society and religious groups filed an impeachment complaint against Vice President Sara Duterte
00:30in the office of the House Secretary General.
00:33Among them, former Secretary Ging Deles who served in the Cabinet of President Noynoy Aquino,
00:40the nephew of Aquino, Kiko Aquino D., running priest Father Robert Reyes,
00:45and the laughing victims of extrajudicial killings during the Duterte administration.
00:50The loyalty of our civil society leaders is to the people.
00:56This is the responsibility of our institution.
01:00They have to give this complaint a fair chance and a fair day in court.
01:06This is a very important process and I'm sure the complaint merits
01:13in the lower house and upper house to make time.
01:16The grounds of impeachment included culpable violation of the Constitution and graft and corruption,
01:23bribery, betrayal of the public trust, and other high crimes.
01:27Twenty-four articles of impeachment,
01:30including the confidential funds of the office of the Vice President and the Department of Education,
01:37were filed against Vice President Sara Duterte.
01:40It also included hijacking of a laptop and other electronic devices in the Department of Education.
01:47They also accused Vice President Duterte of embezzling confidential and intelligence funds
01:53in three of his terms as the mayor of Davao City.
01:57It also mentioned the involvement of the Duterte family in various crimes
02:02and Vice President Duterte's involvement in the life of the President.
02:06In his Zoom press conference on November 23, he was accused of betrayal of public trust and high crimes.
02:12Among the articles are the misuse, the failure to account,
02:18the intel and confidential funds of both the office of the Vice President
02:24and also of the Department of Education.
02:30There are also grounds like his threats, his rants.
02:39There is also an article about her involvement also in the extrajudicial killings during her term as mayor of Davao City.
02:51According to the House Secretary General,
02:53they will investigate the complaint based on the allegations of the impeachment process and will bring it to the House Speaker.
03:01The last session of the House will be held on December 21 before they adjourn.
03:06We have 10 days to acconent, 10 session days.
03:11So if we file it now, it's not enough because it's only 9 session days.
03:18Sendania believes that the limited time of the House to discuss the impeachment complaint is not just a hindrance to the impeachment.
03:26This impeachment complaint is important to start the real step process towards holding the Vice President accountable.
03:36We just need to remember that if not now, when else?
03:42According to the latest news of VP Sara in the life of President Marcos,
03:46First Lady Liza Marcos and House Speaker Martin Romualdez,
03:50the NBI ordered their investigation on December 11 after the Vice President did not attend last week.
03:57The NBI sent people to the OVP in Mandaluyong, the new office, to bring VP Sara.
04:04We are still trying to get the Vice President's statement on the impeachment complaint and the new office of the NBI.
04:11This is the first news. Chino Gaston for GMA Integrated News.
