Recently, Bagong Alyansang Makabayan (BAYAN) chairperson Teddy Casiño admitted that they are still studying the possible refiling of an impeachment case against Vice Pres. Sara Duterte. According to him, the Supreme Court has added several conditions.

“Pinag-aaralan kasi namin ano ‘yung naging implications nitong Supreme Court ruling… Maraming dinagdag na mga conditions ang Supreme Court. Medyo mas mahirap na ngayong mag-file ng impeachment. So ’yun ang mga pinag-aaralan. Of course, the intention is there,” the BAYAN chairman said.
