WATCH: Regardless Of The Amount Or Source Of Funds, VP Duterte Did Not Declare Assets In SALNs – Kapunan
Veteran lawyer and private prosecutor Lorna Kapunan said the public was misled by Vice President Sara Duterte’s alleged failure to disclose everything in her statements of assets, liabilities and net worth.
According to Kapunan, the impeachment court is excluded from data privacy and confidentiality laws. She told “The Big Story” on One News on Monday, Oct. 5, that the Anti-Money Laundering Council primarily serves as a repository for reports submitted by banks on covered and suspicious transactions.
She said questioning whether the AMLC had the authority to access such information was unfair.
In an interview with “Sa Totoo Lang” on One PH on Monday, former Integrated Bar of the Philippines president Antonio Pido said the banks could explain the huge deposits and withdrawals made by the Vice President and her husband, lawyer Manases Carpio.
Pido noted the amount of money coming in and out of banks would be suspicious if they do not match the legitimate income of the account holders.
