Senate Subpoenas Financial Records of Companies Linked to Sara Duterte and Mans Carpio

The Senate impeachment court has ordered the subpoena of financial records for at least 20 companies linked to Vice President Sara Duterte and her husband, Mans Carpio.These records, including bank and tax documents, are critical evidence for House prosecutors aiming to prove Duterte accumulated unexplained wealth.The subpoena covers entities like Metro City Chow Food Corporation, Gencorp Industries, and Carpio Lawyers.

However, the court denied requests for Pikimong Pikimong Philippines Corporation and JTC Group of Companies, citing lack of direct ties to Duterte or Carpio.

The court also rejected subpoenas for their dollar deposit accounts due to confidentiality laws but approved requests for income tax records from 2007 to 2021 to establish a wealth baseline.This development underscores the ongoing scrutiny of Duterte's financial disclosures amid her impeachment trial.The Bureau of Internal Revenue is involved in retrieving sealed tax records, highlighting the legal and financial complexities of the case.The court's decisions reflect a balance between transparency and privacy protections, shaping the trajectory of the impeachment proceedings.
