Ombudsman to turn over Sara’s SALNMANILA, Philippines — The Office of the Ombudsman will comply with a House panel’s directive to submit certified true copies of Vice President Sara Duterte’s statement of assets, liabilities and net worth (SALN). However, Ombudsman Jesus Crispin Remulla clarified that he would not attend the April 14 hearing, but would instead send the official custodian of the documents. The committee said the documents are needed to review Duterte’s declared SALN as part of its evaluation of impeachment complaints filed by various groups and endorsed by several lawmakers. The hearings, led by Luistro, are scheduled on April 14, 22 and 29 as lawmakers determine whether sufficient grounds exist to elevate the impeachment complaints to the plenary. The House committee on justice is not acting on a whim, and it is certainly not acting for amusement,” Chua said in Filipino and English.
