VP Sara, Trillanes arrive in House quad-comm hearing
Vice President Sara Duterte made a surprise appearance at the House of Representatives quad-committee hearing on the Duterte administration's drug war.
She stated earlier that she would only attend if she felt like arguing and had not yet been formally invited.
Her attendance may be seen as showing support for her father, former President Rodrigo Duterte, who also recently attended an inquiry into his administration's drug war.
Former senator Antonio Trillanes IV, a staunch critic of the former president, also arrived at the hearing as a resource person.
