₱125M CF disposed of in less than 24 hours — Madriaga

Witness Ramil Madriaga made a series of revelations during the impeachment proceedings against Sara Duterte before the House Committee on Justice.

One of the key issues raised was the alleged spending of ₱125 million in confidential funds from the Office of the Vice President.

During the hearing, Madriaga claimed that he spent the funds on behalf of Duterte and was able to complete the disbursement within just a few hours—less than a full day.
