What happened
A forensic financial analyst testified before the Senate impeachment court that Sara Duterte's undeclared wealth between 2022 and 2025 could reach up to P1.5 billion. This estimate includes P475 million in confidential funds, P100 million in discrepancies found in Anti-Money Laundering Council records, and an increased ownership stake in Gencorp valued at P250 million. During the trial, Sara Duterte also denied owning a specific lot claimed by the National Bureau of Investigation and accused the bureau of misleading the public.
