Manila, Philippines - The Supreme Court has ordered Vice President Leni Robredo to submit her reply regarding the election protest filed by Senator Bongbong Marcos Jr.
In the electoral protest filed by Marcos, the Senator insists that there was cheating involved in the Vice Presidential race, and requests for a recount.
Robredo led by as much as 260 thousand votes from Marcos as she claimed the Vice Presidential post in the recent national elections.
Meanwhile, the Vice President has issued her stand regarding the series of illegal drugs-related killings. In her statement, the Vice President said that she supports President Rodrigo Duterte’s campaign against illegal drugs. However, she is alarmed with the increasing number of drug-related killings.
Vice President Leni said that with the country’s fight against illegal drugs, she hopes that innocent lives will be spared from it.
“Buo ang suporta ko sa deklarasyon ni Pangulong Duterte na ang kampanya sa pagsupil ng krimen at ipinagbabawal na gamut ay dapat naayon sa batas.
Subalit sa loob lamang ng halos isang buwan, may naitala nang mahigit isandaang kaso ng pagpatay na may kaugnayan sa iligal na droga.
Kaisa man tayo sa giyera kontra sa ipinagbabawal na gamut, nababahala tyao sa lumalakas na kultura ng vigilantism at karahasan. Umaasa tayo na sa giyerang ito, hindi nadadamay ang buhay ng mga inosente at mga walang kalaban-laban.
Hinihikayat naming ang mga kaukulang ahensiya na imbestigahan ang mga nasabing insidente. Kung may mapatutunayang sangko dito, inaasahang natin na sila’y papanagutin sa batas at maparusahan sa kanilang ikinilos.
Bilang isang abugado at dating prosecutor, nananalig tayo sa gagawin ng ating Pangulo ang nararapat.”
