WATCH: ‘DID YOU REALLY INVESTIGATE THIS CASE?’

WATCH: Defense lawyer Carlo Narvasa questioned prosecution witness John Mark Calilung, a senior agent of the NBI, during the impeachment trial as he testified on the agency’s investigation into Vice President Sara Duterte’s alleged threats against President Bongbong Marcos, First Lady Liza Araneta-Marcos, and former Speaker Martin Romualdez.

During cross-examination, Calilung acknowledged that he has no personal knowledge of whether any of the three alleged offended parties personally filed a criminal complaint.

Narvasa then asked, “Did you really investigate this case?”—a question that drew an immediate objection from private prosecutor Amando Ligutan.

‘HINDI TOTOO NA WALANG EBIDENSYA ANG PROSEKUSYON’

Iginiit ni House prosecutor Rep. Terry Ridon na walang basehan ang pahayag ng kampo ni Vice President Sara Duterte na wala umanong ebidensya para sa impeachment case. Aniya, parehong gagamit ang prosekusyon at depensa ng maraming magkakaparehong documentary exhibits sa paglilitis.

Ayon kay Ridon, malinaw na may mga ebidensyang ihaharap ang magkabilang panig sa Senate impeachment court.
