According to the report, House of Representatives prosecutors said Philippine Vice President Sara Duterte's impeachment trial could not be stopped despite the Senate sending the case back to them hours after convening as a court. They said their case had complied strictly with the constitution, adding they would seek clarification over what they called "confusing" Senate orders. "No one can stop this anymore, because jurisdiction has been acquired already by the impeachment court," said Congresswoman Gerville Luistro. Duterte was impeached in early February on charges of graft, corruption and an alleged assassination plot against former ally and running mate President Ferdinand Marcos. A guilty verdict would see her removed from office and permanently barred from politics.
