00:18Princess, Vice President Sara Duterte did not respond to the complaint of the National Bureau of Investigation against her.
00:26But her lawyer wrote a letter asking Vice President Sara Duterte to reschedule her visit to the NBI.
00:33According to NBI Director Jaime Santiago, it is stated in Vice President Sara Duterte's letter that she asked for a reschedule
00:40because she learned late that the hearing of the House Committee on Good Governance was canceled and she will not be able to visit the NBI.
00:49Aside from this, the Vice President will also ask for an excuse to visit her office.
00:54According to the NBI, they will give Vice President Sara Duterte and reschedule her visit to the NBI on December 11.
01:03Here is what Director Jaime Santiago said.
01:06We do not want to involve people. We want the truth to be made clear to the people.
01:14According to the NBI, aside from asking the Vice President, it is not about the allegations against President Ferdinand R. Marcos Jr.,
01:23First Lady Liza Marcos and House Speaker Martin Romualdez,
01:27they will also investigate the human rights death threats against VP Sara.
01:33That's why it's important that she visit the NBI.
01:35That's why they asked her to reschedule her visit to the NBI on December 11,
01:41so that the Vice President can give her time to visit her office.
01:46But this is not a 50-foot. The investigation of the NBI is still ongoing.
01:51Here is what Director Jaime Santiago said.
01:53For example, if a person is sick, it's a valid reason or whatever, it's a valid reason.
02:03Except if she won't come here, if she won't have a honeymoon, if she won't send a counselor,
02:10that will indicate that she is waiving her right to face our investigation.
02:18Princess, aside from VP Sara, the NBI will also investigate the 10 to 12 individuals who attended her live Zoom press conference on November 24,
02:30where the first two presidents threatened the President.
02:35Most of them are media personnel. They did not file a complaint, but they will be included in the investigation.
02:42Princess, I will also add that until now, according to the NBI, they still do not have a lead on who is the assassin or agent that VP Sara is talking about.
02:51Here is the latest. Back to you Princess.
