Sara Duterte open to attend next hearings on Rodrigo’s arrest
Vice President Sara Duterte has expressed her willingness to attend future Senate hearings regarding the arrest of her father, former President Rodrigo Duterte.
She was invited by Senator Imee Marcos, chairperson of the Senate committee on foreign relations, to attend the hearings.
VP Duterte is now back in the Philippines after being in the Netherlands for over three weeks to provide aid to her father, who is currently detained in The Hague.
She previously joined the first Senate hearing on March 20 via video conference but missed the second hearing on April 3 due to a busy schedule and the time difference.
VP Duterte stated she is willing to answer questions in future hearings concerning events in Hong Kong or upon her father's arrival in Manila.
