More than six billion pesos worth of transactions involving the bank accounts of Vice President Sara Duterte and her husband are considered 'suspicious' or 'covered' (exceeding half a million pesos).


This is according to a report by the Anti-Money Laundering Council (AMLC), the agency tasked with ensuring that bank transactions are not used for illegal purposes.


Lawmakers criticized these transactions, saying they allegedly did not match the Vice President’s declared wealth in here Statement of Assets Liabilities and Networth (SALN).


They also pointed out her failure to declare her cash-on-hand and cash in bank accounts on years when transactions happened according to AMLC.

00:00Umabot sa maigit 6 billion piso ang mga transaksyong dumaan sa bank account ni Vice President Sara Duterte at kanyang
00:08mister
00:08na itinutulong na kaduda-duda o kaya na may masyadong malaki dahil lagpas kalahating milyong piso.
00:16Ayon mismo yan, sa ulat ng Anti-Money Laundering Council,
00:20ang ahensyang nagsisigurong hindi nagagamit sa iligal na paraan ng mga transaksyon sa mga banko.
00:25Pinunan naman ng mga kongresista ang laki ng mga transaksyong hindi umano-tugma sa mga dineklarang yaman ng bise,
00:33gayon din ang hindi niya pagdeklara sa hawak niyang pera at pera sa banko.
00:38Nakatutok live si Tina Hamilman-Here.
00:41Tina!
00:45Mel Emil Vicky sa umano yung unexplained wealth ni Vice President Sara Duterte tumuto ang hearing ng House Committee on
00:53Justice ngayong araw.
00:54Pangunahing sinuri ng kumite ang mga sal and ang bise at ang mga transaksyon sa banko na tinatawag na covered
01:01o yung may halagang 500,000 pesos pati na suspicious transactions.
01:09Sa ulot ng Anti-Money Laundering Council o AMLAC sa House Committee on Justice,
01:15lumalabas na may 630 suspicious at covered transactions sa bank accounts ni Vice President Sara Duterte
01:22at kanyang asawang si Atty. Manasas Carpio mula 2005 hanggang 2026.
01:29Umaabot ito ng kabuang halaga na 6.77 billion pesos,
01:34mahigit 3.7 billion sa mga account ni Duterte at halos 3 billion naman sa account ni Carpio.
01:40Yes, there are suspicious transactions and covered transactions found in our system, database or record.
01:47Covered transactions ang tawag sa mga transaksyong aabot ng mahigit 500,000 pesos.
01:53Suspicious transactions naman ang tawag sa anumang halaga ng transaksyon na may dahilan para pagdudahan.
02:01Tulad halimbawa ng kawalan ng pagkakatilanlan ng kliyente,
02:05hindi tugma sa financial capacity ng kliyente ang transaksyon o pagkakaugnay sa iligal na aktividad.
02:11Attorney, to be clear, did you only initiate these reports because of this impeachment?
02:20No, Madam Chair.
02:22We have, and MLC has always been in constant monitoring of all the transactions
02:28and while we have generated a latest one, all the data have been as far as back as early years.
02:36Hindi po kami namimili ng personality. Ang tinitignan po namin dito ay yung data at yung numbers.
02:42Ayon sa AMLAC, halos lahat ng nireport na transaksyon sa kanila ay milyong-milyong piso ang halaga.
02:49Pero puna ng isang miyembro ng House Committee on Justice,
02:52hindi nagtutugma sa Sal Eni Duterte ang mga transaksyong dumaan sa kanyang bank accounts.
02:58Halimbawa, noong 2009, panahong vice mayor pa siya ng Davao.
03:03Nagdeklara noon ng mahigit 18 milyon pesos na net worth si Duterte.
03:08Pero ang flag transactions na dumaan sa kanyang bank accounts umabot ng halos 705 milyon pesos.
03:15Base pa sa AMLAC report,
03:17sa mga flag transaksyon naman na dumaan sa account ni Atty. Manasa Scarpio,
03:21pinakamalaking halaga ang naitala noong 2024 na umabot sa mahigit 1.8 milyon pesos.
03:29Nakasaad din sa AMLAC report mula August 2024 hanggang January 2026,
03:36naging subject si Duterte ng 27 confidential reports na nagsasaad ng kadudadudang aktibidad
03:43kabilang ang drug trafficking, graft and corrupt practices at malversation of public funds.
03:50Kaugnayan sa mga lumabas sa House Quad Committee hearings at sa impeachment complaints na inihain laban sa vice.
03:57Bukod sa diraw pagkakatugma ng net worth ng vice presidente,
04:02sa mga transaksyong dumaan sa kanyang bank accounts,
04:05may isa pang napuna ang ilang miyembro ng House Justice Committee sa mga sal e ni Duterte.
04:10Mula ang 2019 hanggang 2024, walang iniulat si Vice President Sara Duterte na cash on hand and in banks sa
04:19kanyang sal e.
04:20Pero may iniulat sa AMLAC o Anti-Money Laundering Council na covered at suspicious transactions sa mga bank account ng
04:28vice sa mga taong iyon.
04:30Halimbawa, noong 2019, kung kailan walang i-dineklarang cash on hand and in banks ang vice,
04:37may na-flag na transaksyon ng AMLAC na mahigit 60 million pesos.
04:42At noong 2019 at 2024, kahit na singko po, wala po siyang dineklara na cash at saka cash on hand.
04:50Tama po ba?
04:51Based on the submitted, Sal, and Your Honor, wala pong nakalagay na cash on hand or bank deposits.
04:57Kahit singko po, wala pong nakalagay, Your Honor.
05:05Hindi, wow.
05:06Ang biglaan at tuloy-tuloy na pagkawala ng deklarasyon ng liquid assets, because cash on hand and cash in bank
05:16are liquid assets.
05:17Sa kabila ng dati, meron naman na mga halaga ng mga cash on hand, cash in bank, ay nagdudulot ng
05:25pagdududa sa kawastuhan at kabuuan ng subsequent sal-ends ni VP Sara.
05:31Ang ilan daw sa mga account na ito, aktibo pa.
05:34Kahapon po, personal ako na nag-deposit sa isa sa mga alleged bank accounts na nakapangalan kina VP Sara Duterte
05:42at ang kanyang ama na si former President Rodrigo Duterte.
05:46Taliwas po sa kanilang patuloy na pagtanggi, lumabas na active pa ang account.
05:51Nakapag-deposit po tayo ng 448 pesos doon sa isang account na ito.
05:57Pero si Congressman Paulo Marcoleta, kinesyon ng pagpapasabpina sa mga naturang SAL-EN.
06:03Let me state on record that the SAL-ENs discussed were not attached in the original complaints.
06:11Hindi po sila kasama sa original complaints.
06:14And using the SAL-ENs as a starting point without necessary predicate evidence supports the position
06:22that the investigation of the House of Representatives Committee on Justice is a fishing expedition.
06:29Paano niya nasabi yun? Kasama eh.
06:32Ito, abasahin ko.
06:35Vice President Sara Duterte committed culpable violation of the Constitution
06:41and betrayed the public trust in amassing unexplained wealth
06:46and failing to disclose all her properties and interest in properties in her SAL-EN.
06:54Nagalagay po sa complaint eh.
07:02Pino na rin ng isang miyembro ng House Committee on Justice
07:06kung hindi raw ba lumalabag sa Bank Secrecy Law
07:09ang pagtalakay ng kumite sa bank transactions ng vice at kanyang asawa.
07:15I'm concerned with where we are going right now.
07:17We will now be discussing from the statements of the AMLOC representative bank accounts.
07:26And I'm worried that the discussion might lead somewhere na pinagbabawal ng Bank Secrecy Law.
07:35For the record, the coverage of Bank Secrecy Law and for the guidance of the members
07:41are bank officials and employees and bank records.
07:45And the chairs of the opinion that the subject matter of our subpoena
07:51is apparently not covered by the protection of the Bank Secrecy Law.
07:58We cannot use the Bank Secrecy Law as a shield to allow public officials to hide behind.
08:06Klarong-klaro po, ang pinag-uusapan natin sa isang impeachment case ay pananagutan
08:10at kailangan maging transparent ang lahat ng mga public officials.
08:17Humingi rin ng paglilinaw ang iba pang mababatas sa mga sinabi ng AMLOC.
08:22So, gano'n yun. So, basta labas-pasok, labas-pasok, nag-a-add to.
08:27So, it doesn't mean na pagka sinabi natin may 3.9 billion,
08:32does it mean na merong 3.9 billion sa loob ng account?
08:38Hindi ko po, kung based lang po sa records, hindi ko pa po masabi.
08:43Pero maaaring gano'n?
08:45Theoretically, possibly po yung sinasabi.
08:48Pag suspicious yung transaction,
08:50ibig bang sabihin na ito ay illegal na or unlawful na?
08:55Para kasing gano'n lumalabas, pag ito ay tinag na suspicious,
09:00agad-agad itong piniprejudge na as if it's an illegal,
09:06or unlawful transaction.
09:08I want to be clarified on that, Madam Chair.
09:10That is a manifestation which does not require any answer.
09:20Hindi ulit dumaloon si Vice President Duterte
09:23sa hearing ng House Committee on Justice ngayong araw.
09:26Sakaling matapos na ng Komite yung pagtalakay sa issue ng umano'y unexplained wealth ng BICE,
09:31yung issue naman ng bantaan ng BICE kay Pangulong Bongbong Marcos,
09:36First Lady Lisa Marcos,
09:37at ating House Speaker Martin Romualdez,
09:39ang tututukan sa susunod na hearing sa April 29.
09:43Vicky?
09:44Maraming salamat sa iyo, Tina, panganiban-pere.
09:48Ayon po sa defense team ni Vice President Sara Duterte,
09:51minonitor nila ang impeachment proceedings ngayong araw,
09:55pero wala pa silang opisyal na pahayag.
09:57Nagpadala rin ng mensahe ang GMA News sa vice-presidente,
10:01pero wala pa siyang tugon sa ngayon.
