Marcos Says Court Order Has No Bearing on Merits of VP Duterte’s Impeachment Case
In a statement, President Ferdinand Marcos Jr. said the recent Supreme Court decision invalidating the impeachment complaint against Vice President Sara Duterte did not address the merits of the case. The court's ruling focused solely on the procedural issues and did not make any judgment on the substance of the allegations. Marcos emphasized that the court's order had no bearing on the actual merits of the impeachment case against the Vice President. He maintained that the decision was limited to the flaws in the filing process and did not reflect on the validity or strength of the underlying claims. Marcos reiterated that the matter would need to be re-evaluated and resubmitted through the proper channels, in accordance with the court's findings.
