PDP Laban slams Quadcomm’s move against Duterte et al
The PDP Laban party, chaired by former President Rodrigo Duterte, has strongly condemned the House Quad Committee's recommendation to file charges against the former president and other officials concerning the previous administration's war on drugs.
The party asserted that the QuadComm's actions are politically motivated and lack a clear legal and evidentiary basis.
PDP Laban also claimed that testimonies gathered during the QuadComm investigations were obtained under duress, with resource persons allegedly threatened with contempt if they did not comply with the committee's narrative.
The party further alleged that the QuadComm conducted its probe without due process and exhibited a strong bias against former President Duterte.
This bias, according to PDP Laban, extended to another House committee's investigation into Vice President Sara Duterte's alleged misuse of funds.
