41 of 60 representatives from Mindanao signed impeachment complaint vs VP Sara
MALAYBALAY CITY (MindaNews / 6 Feb) – Forty-one of 60 members of the House of Representatives from the congressional districts in Mindanao were among the lawmakers who signed the impeachment complaint against Vice President Sara Duterte.
The articles of impeachment were approved during the House plenary Wednesday and transmitted to the Senate on the same day, just before both chambers adjourned for the election campaign.
A total of 215 out of 306 members of the House voted for impeachment, higher than the one-third requirement for the complaint to be transmitted to the Senate for trial.
A guilty verdict will mean Duterte’s removal as vice president and ineligibility to hold any public office.
