Manila, Philippines – Vice President Sara Duterte on Sunday denied rumors that her father, former President Rodrigo Duterte, was found unconscious inside his detention cell at the International Criminal Court (ICC).
In her speech during the “Run for Du30” event in Davao City, VP Sara said that the circulating news about this incident is not true and that it did not happen.
Through his lawyers, VP Sara said that even FPRRD denied the rumor, confirming that his health is “okay.”
She said that her dad even joked that this may be a prank from his supporters.
Meanwhile, VP Sara said that their family is expecting some good news on November 28, when the ICC appeals chamber will decide on FPRRD’s interim release request.
While they hope for a favourable result, she said that if the request won’t be granted, the Defense will continue its preparations and efforts on Duterte’s legal case before the ICC.βMia Layaguin, Eurotv News
