00:00In June, the impeachment trial of Vice President Sara Duterte will start, according to Senate President Cheese Escudero.
00:09They cannot start the litigation while the session of Congress is on break, said Ma'am Gonzales.
00:22Senate President Cheese Escudero is arguing that while the session of Congress is on break,
00:27they cannot start the impeachment trial of Vice President Sara Duterte.
00:32Escudero said that the impeachment court must be convened first and it can only be done while the session is on.
00:50The first impeachment complaints against Vice President Duterte were filed in the House of Representatives in December.
00:55But it was only yesterday that the camera was sent to the Senate on the last day of their session.
01:26The impeachment process for me is not important if you are in favor or against.
01:32It is not important if you agree to convict.
01:34What is important for me is credibility and justice will be served.
01:40When asked if President Marcos can call for a special session while the Congress is on break, Escudero said,
01:47The call for a special session, as far as I know, is not to convene the impeachment court.
01:54If the Senators ask for it, yes.
01:57Again, they will decide.
02:00We are not...
02:01The Senate President added that there is still a lot to do while the Senate is on break.
02:06This is one of the ways to verify the evidence that Congressmen signed the impeachment complaint.
02:12Escudero said that the signature cannot be e-signatured because Congressmen personally signed and stamped it in front of the House Secretary General.
02:21Verified signatures must reach 102 to ensure that the required number is sufficient for the complaint to be directly transmitted to the Senate.
02:31Escudero said that if the remaining days of the 19th Congress will be held, the impeachment trial will definitely reach the 20th Congress.
02:38And they will decide if VP Sara will be convicted or not.
02:42This means that the 12 Senators that we will vote for in the election will be with the Hatol and Bisse.
02:49In the trial, VP Sara can be called if necessary.
02:52VP Sara can also defend herself because she is a lawyer.
02:57But she can waive her appearance.
03:00That is part of the rights of an accused under the Bill of Rights to confront his or to confront the witnesses against her.
03:10She has the right to attend hearings every day, to speak as a lawyer, because she can stand as a lawyer for herself, or she can stand as a witness.
03:22But she cannot be forced to testify in the case because it will violate, on the other hand, the right against self-incrimination.
03:31In other words, she cannot be called by the prosecution and forced to sit there to ask if she doesn't want to.
03:37If Duterte is called and refused to go...
04:07vis-a-vis the accusations being hurled against her by members of the House.
04:12So I hope that will indeed be her position.
04:15When it started, is there a time limit for the impeachment trial?
04:19None, but who would want to reach this till Kingdom Come?
04:22One way or the other, it needs to be judged and decided.
04:26I repeat, it is not rushed, but it is also not forced.
04:31Senator Aimee Marcos, the sister of the President and a well-known ally of Bisse, also made a statement.
04:36She said that she will fight the impeachment trial until the end because she doesn't want chaos.
04:42The real problems should be faced instead of impeachment and destabilization.
04:48For GMA Integrated News, Mav Gonzalez, Natutok, 24 Horas.
