00:00A new impeachment complaint will be filed against Vice President Sara Duterte today
00:05in connection with the questionable spending of OVP and DepEd's confidential funds.
00:10Aside from the impeachment, the House Committee on Good Government and Public Accountability
00:15will also recommend the filing of a criminal complaint against Vice President Sara Duterte.
00:19This is the news of Joseph Moro.
00:23Who is Mary Grace Piatos?
00:25Do you think she is a real person?
00:27There is no birth, marriage, and death certificate
00:30that has such a name in the record of the Philippine Statistics Authority.
00:33But a Mary Grace Piatos Acknowledgement Receipt
00:37was signed by the Office of the Vice President
00:39to explain how they spent the confidential funds of 2022.
00:44That's why the House Committee on Good Government and Public Accountability is looking for her.
00:48Possibly, the PSAM will expand its search
00:51if it can provide additional information to the committee
00:54such as the name, place, and date related to the parents of Piatos.
00:58It's like a bogus acknowledgement receipt that comes out.
01:02Maybe our next step is to check other names.
01:08What does this show?
01:10That the officials of the Office of the Vice President,
01:13led by no other than Sara Duterte,
01:16invented receipts
01:20to defend the wrong use of confidential funds.
01:27Now, there is a concrete proof
01:31that the money of the country was not used properly.
01:36The committee is also investigating in the NBI
01:38the signatures of other questionable acknowledgement receipts.
01:42But what if the names used in the liquidation of confidential funds are not real?
01:47We asked COA, but the congressmen admitted that this is not clear.
01:51According to the committee that is investigating the confidential funds
01:55of the Office of the Vice President and the Department of Education,
01:57they have sufficient information not only to restrict the use of confidential funds in a new law,
02:04but also to investigate criminal cases.
02:07This is for the complaint of bribery and graft and corruption.
02:11We recommend filing charges against the staff of DP.
02:17The staff of the Vice President and DepEd,
02:22and even the Vice President, is not immune to corruption.
02:26The backstop at her office is responsible for all of that.
02:31The committee did not account for the use of confidential funds
02:34in one of the articles of impeachment
02:37that were filed against Vice President Duterte
02:39as well as the violation of the life of President Bongbong Marcos,
02:42the First Lady and the House Speaker.
02:45Even so, Palacion insisted,
02:46when the position of the President was announced,
02:49about the use of impeachment against Vice President Duterte
02:51before filing a complaint.
02:53The President already made a clear and unambiguous statement
02:57that he would not support an effort to impeach.
03:02It's distracting.
03:04We have a lot of important things to do for the country.
03:09That's how it should be.
03:12Any suggestion that it's political or instigated by our side,
03:21no, that is never true.
03:26Another impeachment complaint was endorsed by Makabayan Black.
03:29It was filed by 50 bodies from various organizations.
03:34We are still waiting for the official statement
03:36of Vice President Sara Duterte.
03:38Joseph Morong reporting for GMA Integrated News.
