Lawmaker says VP Sara Duterte's husband is central to her wealth probe

Rep. Terry Ridon argued that attorney Manases Carpio's assets are directly linked to Vice President Sara Z. Duterte's unexplained wealth case.

During a news forum in Quezon City, Rep. Terry Ridon, who is part of the House impeachment team, emphasized the relevance of Manases “Mans” Carpio's property holdings to the investigation of Vice President Sara Z. Duterte's alleged unexplained wealth. He stated that whatever Carpio owns is effectively owned by the vice president. Ridon co-leads the Article II prosecution with Rep. Chel Diokno of the Akbayan party-list.

Why it matters

The testimony could shape the outcome of a high-profile corruption case involving the Philippines' vice president.
