Medialdea accused of spreading false news about Duterte
Former Executive Secretary Salvador Medialdea is accused of spreading false information about former President Rodrigo Duterte's health and whereabouts. Iloilo Rep. Janette Garin stated that Medialdea's claims have caused public agitation. Garin emphasized that the International Criminal Court (ICC) is careful about the health of individuals in its custody. She expressed disbelief at Medialdea's statements regarding Duterte's medical treatment and condition. Duterte was recently arrested and transferred to the ICC in The Hague, Netherlands, following an arrest warrant related to his administration's drug war. Medialdea has not yet responded to the allegations.
