Vice President Sara Duterte made an unexpected appearance at the People’s Center in the Batasan Complex, Quezon City, on Wednesday where her father, former President Rodrigo Duterte, was attending a legislative inquiry by the House Quad Committee on extrajudicial killings during his administration.

According to a report by RH Milky Rigonan, Sara Duterte arrived directly from the Senate, where the budget for the Office of the Vice President had just been approved for 2025.

House Quad Committee Chairman Ace Barbers acknowledged the Vice President’s presence upon her arrival.

The former president's daughter is reportedly only observing the hearings.

During the hearing, former President Duterte stated that he takes full responsibility for the victims of the war on drugs.

"Lahat ng nangyari pursuant to my order to stop the drug problem in this country, akin iyon. Akin na akin iyon. Ako ang nagbigay ng order. Que legal o illegal, akin iyon. I take full responsibility for it," said former President Duterte.

As of this writing, the hearing is ongoing, with several families of extrajudicial killing victims testified.
