00:00Vice President Sara Duterte is not the only one who is being investigated by the Department of Justice
00:06because even her father, former President Rodrigo Duterte,
00:11is now being blamed for his statements that seem to be urging the military to move against the administration.
00:19Louisa Erispe is back in the center of the news.
00:24Former President Rodrigo Duterte is also no longer missing from the investigation of the Department of Justice.
00:29According to the DOJ, it can be considered bordering on sedition
00:33the sudden move of the former president of the Armed Forces of the Philippines
00:38who moved against the fractured governance in the Philippines.
00:43Because of this, it is possible for the investigation of her and her son, Vice President Sara Duterte, to be simultaneous.
00:51We will investigate the statements of former President Duterte
00:58along with other things that are happening these days.
01:03For him to invite the military to have a part in seeking remedy is bordering on sedition.
01:12The DOJ also pointed out that the military has no role in leading the government.
01:17Their only duty is to protect the people.
01:20So if the former president has a problem with the government,
01:24he should pass it on to the law and not to the military.
01:48The DOJ also believes that despite the former president's calls,
01:54the AFP will remain loyal to the government and professional.
01:58When it comes to what Duterte said, that the country has a fractured government,
02:02the DOJ's answer is simple.
02:17There is no such thing as fractured government.
02:20The Justice Department is also looking into where the silence came from
02:24in the demonstrations against the government.
02:27The DOJ assures that it is being chased.
02:31As of now, the former president has not commented on this investigation against him by the DOJ.
02:39Luisa Erispe for the nation.
