Meanwhile, Malacañang dismissed recent allegations by former congressman Zaldy Co against President Marcos as pure hearsay. Seventeen lawmakers skipped the hearing to avoid prejudicing an ongoing probe.

A Manila court has recommended falsification charges against Senate witness Orly Guteza after determining his affidavit was falsified. The ruling ties into probes on infrastructure corruption, where Guteza accused lawmakers of receiving cash bribes. Guteza failed to appear at court hearings, leading to findings that he and others participated in the forgery.
