Naglabas ng subpoena ang justice committee ng House laban kay ‘Piattos’ at iba pa

Naglabas ng mga subpoena ang justice committee ng House of Representatives sa ilang indibidwal, kabilang ang ‘Mary Grace Piattos,’ para sa pagpapatuloy ng hearing sa April 14 tungkol sa impeachment complaint laban kay Vice President Sara Duterte. Pinahihiling din nito ang tax records mula sa BIR para kay Duterte at kanyang asawang si Manases Carpio.

Pinangunahan ni Rep. Gerville Luistro ang justice committee na nag-utos ng mga subpoena para sa pagpapatuloy ng imbestigasyon sa confidential funds ng Office of the Vice President at iba pang isyu laban kay Duterte.
Hiniling nito kay BIR Commissioner Charlito Martin Mendoza ang income tax returns ni Duterte at Carpio mula 2007 hanggang 2025, pati na ang tax compliance ng kanilang mga negosyo tulad ng Metro City Chow Foods Corp., Gencorp Industries Inc., at iba pa.

Si ‘Mary Grace Piattos,’ na na-ugnay sa P612 milyong confidential funds, ay inimbestigahan rin, bagaman walang record sa PSA. Pinasama rin si State Auditor V Gloria Camora ng COA upang magpakita ng mga dokumento sa liquidation ng funds, at si lawyer Cynthia Viñas-Pantonal na nag-notaryo ng affidavit ni Ramil Lagunoy Madriaga, na detinado sa Camp Bagong Diwa.

Si Michael Poa, spokesperson ng legal team ni Duterte, ay tumangging magkomento. Samantala, lawyer Paolo Panelo ay nagsabi na kung may masama mang mangyari kay Madriaga, ‘his handlers’ ang dapat sisihin, dahil fabricated daw ang mga testimonyo nito laban kay Duterte.

Ang layunin ng hearing ay matukoy kung sapat ang basehan upang i-elevate ang impeachment complaints sa plenary at ipadala sa Senate.
