In a major political-move this monday‚ several well-known activists submitted formal charges against Sara Duterte at Philippines House of Representatives (which is the main lawmaking body in Manila)
The high-profile case brings up multiple serious issues: governmental fund problems mishandling of state resources and threats against top officials. The complaint states that Duterte made direct threats towards the president his wife and even house speaker — which adds more weight to this legal action
The opponents point to several key problems with Dutertes leadership:
- Breaking constitutional rules
- Large-scale money misuse
- Making death threats
- Wrong handling of office funds
This political confrontation shows how complex relationships between Philippine top officials have become — with the vice president now facing possible removal from office
