Asia-Pacific2 sources2 countries🔦 Under-reported46m ago
Philippine Vice-President Sara Duterte posted bail at a Manila courthouse on Saturday, a day after an arrest warrant was issued against her. The legal action follows charges brought last month over alleged grave threats, after Duterte claimed she had hired a hitman to kill President Ferdinand Marcos Jr, his wife, and a congressman cousin if she were killed first.
Additional political turmoil surrounds the vice-president, who was previously impeached in May on separate charges that included graft and corruption.
