MANILA, Philippines — Tinawag ni Senate impeachment court presiding officer Francis “Chiz” Escudero ang atensyon ni Manila Rep. Bienvenido Abante matapos nitong mapansin na tila nakakatulog habang isinasagawa ang impeachment trial laban kay Vice President Sara Duterte.

Dahil dito kaya hini­ling ni Escudero kay dating Surigao del Norte Congressman at House Prosecution adviser Ace Barbers at House pro­secutor Lo­renz Defensor na tapikin o gisingin si Abante dahil parang pagod na siya. “He may want to rest somewhere, but at least no right behind the witness,” ayon kay Escudero.

Si Rendell Sopeña, hepe ng PHilGEPS Division ang nasa witness stand habang nakaupo naman si Abante sa VIP section ng session hall ng Senado.

Nagbiro naman si House lead prosecutor Gerville Luistro na nagdadasal lang si Abante para sa prosecution.

“I doubt that,” sagot naman ni Escudero na nakatawa.
