00:00Former President Rodrigo Duterte and former Senator Antonio Trillanes
00:05challenged and challenged the camera
00:09to highlight again Duterte's hidden wealth
00:13which was Trillanes' first illustration in 2016.
00:18According to the chairman of the listening committee,
00:21their reminders in the property quorum
00:24of those who will attend the hearing were enough.
00:26Sandra Ginaldo was there.
00:31Let's go.
00:33Let's go.
00:38This is probably the hottest meeting
00:40in the listening of the House Squad Committee last night
00:42that is investigating the war against drugs
00:45of former President Rodrigo Duterte.
00:47In another camera,
00:48we can hear what former Senator Antonio Trillanes said to Duterte
00:53before he was slapped by the microphone.
00:57Chairman, session suspended.
01:11Please observe proper decorum.
01:14We are in a committee hearing.
01:17We have already stressed from the very beginning
01:21that the proper rules, decorum,
01:25will be implemented regardless of who you are.
01:30The former president apologized.
01:33I just would like to apologize
01:36for the unbecoming behavior.
01:44He will slap me.
01:46Isn't that a provocation?
01:49I told him,
01:52Come on.
01:53Slap me.
01:55Trillanes and Duterte have a deep connection.
01:58In 2016, when Duterte was still a candidate for the presidency,
02:02Trillanes accused him of having hidden wealth.
02:06So he challenged him to meet at a bank in Pasig
02:10and issue a bank secrecy waiver.
02:12Trillanes said that Duterte has more than 200 million pesos in the bank.
02:18But Duterte did not come.
02:20It was his lawyer, Salvador Panelo.
02:23And Panelo's secret is not a waiver,
02:26but a special power of attorney.
02:28In this special power of attorney,
02:30he asked the bank to issue a certificate
02:33of his current balance.
02:35And to issue a certification
02:37that the bank account did not have a deposit
02:41that reached more than 200 million pesos.
02:43But he did not ask the special power of attorney
02:46to issue a detailed transaction record
02:49that Trillanes wanted to see.
02:51So when he was invited to speak at the Quadcom,
02:53Trillanes again cut Duterte's bank accounts.
02:57We returned the bank accounts
02:59that we collected from Duterte in 2016.
03:04We were checking if there were any deposits
03:10that went into his account.
03:12And we saw that there were deposits
03:16in Duterte's bank accounts
03:21from this group of drug lords.
03:26After this, Duterte was asked
03:28if he was ready to sign a waiver
03:30to see his bank accounts.
03:32I'm willing to execute an affidavit
03:37to summon the bank or summon my waiver.
03:46If there is only one truth,
03:49I will resign and I will ask my daughter
03:53to resign and everybody in the family.
03:57That is my guarantee.
03:59And I will hang myself.
04:01I will sign the document tomorrow
04:07and I will hand it because the lawyer will do it.
04:11He said that he will issue a waiver.
04:14It's all bluff.
04:16It would be better if we draft it now
04:19so that he can sign it here.
04:21What is the alternative, sir?
04:23I will slap him in public.
04:26Not now.
04:29There is no alternative.
04:31I will slap him in public.
04:34Session suspended.
04:41Before Trillanes' release,
04:43Duterte had a chance to hear
04:45former Senator Laila de Lima.
04:49It's so unprofessional.
04:51It's so unbecoming.
04:52It's vile.
04:54I have nothing to do with her.
04:59I just answer questions
05:02in a very professional manner
05:04and that will be her reaction.
05:07In spite of these incidents,
05:09the Quad Committee believes that
05:11yesterday's hearing was a good result
05:13because of Duterte's confession
05:15and other important information that they found.
05:18The committee said that
05:20the proper decorum of everyone who attended the hearing was enough.
05:24To some people, it looks offensive.
05:27To some people,
05:29this probably will be perceived
05:31as a playful gesture of the president.
05:38We really cannot judge.
05:42But of course,
05:44the attention of the president
05:48and the other resource persons there
05:51was actually called by the chair.
05:57Let's maintain proper decorum.
05:59I think that was enough message for all.
06:03Senator Laila de Lima,
06:06I know it's a joke.
06:08You can see that she has a smile.
06:12But Senator Trillanes,
06:15our former president was a bit shocked.
06:18But until now,
06:19according to Barbers,
06:20Duterte has not yet signed a waiver.
06:24We are trying to get Duterte's waiver regarding this.
06:28For GMA Integrated News,
06:30Sandra Aguinaldo,
06:31for Tutok 24 Horas.
