MANILA, Philippines — Both impeachment complaints filed against Vice President Sara Duterte have been transmitted to the Office of the Speaker, House Secretary General Cheloy Garafil said on Friday. In a statement on February 6, Garafil confirmed that the complaints were sent to Speaker Bojie Dy's office on Thursday afternoon, February 5. This came exactly a year after Duterte was impeached by the 19th Congress, a move later struck down by the Supreme Court as unconstitutional. During this period, Rep. Terry Ridon (Bicol Saro Party-list) said House members who previously filed the fourth impeachment complaint against Duterte in 2025 may refile if they choose to fast-track the process by obtaining the support of one-third of all House members. With President Bongbong Marcos' impeachment case dismissed by the justice committee, the House will most likely focus solely on the vice president’s impeachment cases in the months to come.
