Palace warns Robredo ‘could be treading on dangerous grounds’ 3 SHARES Share it! Share TweetBy Genalyn D. KabilingVice President Leni Robredo could tread on “dangerous grounds” and commit an “overreach” of her authority if she reveals state secrets to foreigners and welcome those who trample the country’s sovereignty, Malacañang said Sunday. Presidential Spokesman Salvador Panelo made the statement after President Duterte vowed to remove Robredo as anti-drug czar if she commits such acts that harm the welfare of the people. The President earlier said he would “fire” Robredo as co-chairperson of the Inter-Agency Committee on Anti-Illegal Drugs (ICAD) if she reveals classified information to the public. “Once (she does) that, she’s out, I would fire her,” Duterte said in a recent interview with GMA News.
