Summary
Bam Aquino said Sunday he will file a motion in the trial’s first week to make all evidence in Vice President Sara Duterte’s impeachment case public.
Monday’s 2 p.m. trial opening puts the transparency push on the eve of formal proceedings, with Aquino urging Filipinos to watch closely, participate and guard against misinformation.
Aquino, who will sit as a senator-judge, said impeachment can overturn voters’ choice and pledged to judge the case fairly, without political loyalties, based only on the evidence.
Duterte faces allegations including misuse of confidential funds, unexplained wealth, bribery of Education Department officials, and death threats against President Ferdinand Marcos Jr., First Lady Liza Araneta-Marcos and Martin Romualdez.
