Philippine police officials have filed criminal complaints against Vice President Sara Duterte and her security staff for allegedly assaulting authorities and disobeying orders during an altercation in Congress. The complaints were lodged by Quezon City police and are separate from any legal action that may result from Duterte's recent public threats.
The threats made by Duterte included a statement about having President Ferdinand Marcos Jr., his wife, and the House Speaker assassinated in the event of harm to herself, although she did not provide details of the alleged plot. A presidential adviser has also filed a petition to disbar Duterte as a lawyer due to her assassination threats.
