House prosecution team seeks Senate response to Sara summons
Batangas Rep. Gerville Luistro, one of the members of the House of Representatives' Prosecution Team, said that they would wait for the order from the Senate regarding its position on the summons to Vice President Sara Duterte to answer the charges against her. Senate President Chiz Escudero said on March 26, 2025 that he would not accept the summons issued by the House prosecutors as the impeachment court has yet to be convened.

00:00I think Congressman Limalan and Congressman Roach filed already the motion yesterday, right? It was covered by the media. So what we're waiting for is what will be the answer.
00:16Well, CSP said that it's not...
00:19Nonetheless, we need an official response or feedback from the Senate on their position about the motion.
00:26But are you expecting that impeachment will happen this coming April?
00:32I believe that that has been the standard of the prosecution ever since we filed the impeachment complaint last February 5.
00:40Kasi nga ang aming appreciation dyan, it is a constitutional duty that we really have to take. This is the third mode of filing a complaint, supported by at least one-third, and according to the Constitution, impeachment trial must forthwith proceed.
00:58Ma'am, what if... Well, wala pa po si VP Sara ngayon. I think she is... Meron siya travel authority hanggang April 30, pero sinabi niya sa amin na open-ended yung ticket niya. Are you inclined to start the impeachment trial even without the Vice President on board?
01:13Well, I cannot answer that until and unless the impeachment court convicts.
01:28Thank you for watching!
