NAGA CITY — Vice President Leni Robredo is unfazed by the threat of Speaker Pantaleon Alvarez to file an impeachment case against her in connection with the statements she gave on extrajudicial killings (EJK) in a video recorded for the United Nations commission. “If his (Alvarez’s) basis for impeachment complaint is the one filed by the Magdalo, they themselves said I am not part in the filing of impeachment complaint (against President Duterte),” she added.

I don’t know if at that time they are already thinking of the impeachment complaint (referring to the Magdalo) because I am not part of the group. If it’s about timing, it is the timing that it (video) came out to the media now,” she said.
