00:00Paalak ipatawag ng prosecution panel si Vice President Sara Duterte bilang hostile witness sa kanya ang impeachment trial.
00:07Kumunta ang babisa sa Senado kahapon para makipagkita sa kanyang defense team at hindi humarap sa impeachment court.
00:14Balita hatid ni Ian Cruz.
00:32Maiksi ang pahayag ni Vice President Sara Duterte sa pagpunta niya sa Senado bago magsimula ang ikalawang araw ng impeachment
00:40trial.
00:40Ayon sa Office of the Vice President, nagpunta sa Senado ang pangalawang Pangulo para sa lunch meeting kasama ang kanyang
00:47defense team.
00:48Hindi siya tumanggap ng tanong mula sa media at hindi rin dumalo sa paglilitis.
00:53Sa ilalim ng rules ng impeachment court, hindi siya mapipilit na dumalo.
00:59Ang parate natin sinasabi dyan sir is kung kinakailangan and that will be upon advice of counsel.
01:05Wala pa po tayo yung pinag-uusapan.
01:07Tinanong si Powa kung bakit sa Senado sila nagpulong.
01:11Minarapat na niya na dito na lang kami magkita para nang sa ganun hindi kami yung ma-inconvenience.
01:16Ang prosekusyon, hinimok si Duterte na magpakita sa impeachment court.
01:22Welcome to the bloodbath Madam Vice President.
01:24But you cannot have a bloodbath from the sidelines.
01:28You cannot have a bloodbath through proxies.
01:33Ang pagpunta ng Vice Presidente sa Senado, di pagdalo sa paglilitis.
01:39Binanggit ng prosekusyon sa impeachment court, balak ng prosekusyon ay patawag ang Vice Presidente bilang hostile witness.
01:46One of the key witnesses, hostile, albeit hostile, would be the Vice President.
01:53And therefore, if we can inquire, if it is her intention to again appear in the premises of the Senate,
02:03because we are already respectfully informing this Honorable Court that we will manifest that we will have a written request
02:13for her presence in connection with this article on grave threats.
02:19The impeachment rules do not mandate nor require the respondent to attend any hearing or trial of the impeachment court.
02:28Whether she was in the building earlier or arrived after, it is totally up to the respondent,
02:35because from the point of view of the court, she is represented in this court through her counsel already.
02:41Should the counsel for the prosecutors desire to call the respondent herself,
02:48the court will act on that motion and request once it is made and or filed and need not make
02:54a ruling at this point in time.
