Senate starts trial of VP Duterte
Senators on Monday took their oath as judges to begin the impeachment trial of Vice President Sara Duterte, pledging “to do impartial justice according to the Constitution and laws of the Philippines.” Duterte, impeached last week by the House, faces charges including constitutional violations, graft, unexplained wealth, and allegedly plotting to assassinate President Ferdinand Marcos Jr. A Senate summons requires her to respond within 10 calendar days and later appear for the trial. Conviction will need 16 senators’ votes.
