Young Woman Allegedly Stripped and Assaulted at Guwahati Nightclub

Senator Antonio Trillanes IV alleged Thursday that former President Rodrigo Duterte and his wife, Cielito, received P469 million from China, according to ABS-CBN. Trillanes made the accusation during a Senate hearing as part of an ongoing investigation into the Duterte family's alleged ties to Chinese officials and unexplained wealth.
Trillanes presented documents and testimony claiming the P469 million flowed to the Dutertes through intermediaries connected to Chinese interests, ABS-CBN reported. The senator said the funds represented a pattern of financial transactions that raised questions about corruption and potential conflicts of interest during Duterte's presidency from 2016 to 2022.
The Senate hearing marked another escalation in the investigation into Duterte family finances, which has grown more contentious in recent months. Multiple lawmakers have called for deeper probe into the sources of wealth for the former president and his relatives, including his daughter, now Vice President Sara Duterte.
The former president's office has repeatedly denied wrongdoing and rejected accusations of illicit financial dealings. Duterte's legal representatives argue that allegations lack credible evidence and are politically motivated attempts to damage his legacy and family reputation.
