Duterte's planned attendance at drug war hearing called a plot by Philippine lawmaker

inquirer.net — November 12, 2024 at 12:01 PM UTC

Former President Rodrigo Duterte's planned attendance at a House hearing on the drug war has been labeled a "plot" by Santa Rosa City Rep. Dan Fernandez. He claims supporters announced his attendance to make lawmakers appear uncooperative, despite multiple invitations to Duterte. The quad committee has rescheduled the hearing from November 13 to November 21 to verify testimonies. Rep. Robert Ace Barbers stated that Duterte did not confirm his attendance before the rescheduling, and no official communication was received from him or his representatives. Duterte's former spokesperson, Salvador Panelo, announced plans to confront lawmakers over the last-minute cancellation. The quad panel is investigating alleged irregularities in the drug war, including claims of a rewards system for police involved in operations.
