MANILA, Philippines -- Senator-judges of the impeachment court admonished the prosecution panel for revealing documents to the public that disclosed the alleged 45 properties of Chief Justice Renato Corona.
Senator-judge Francis Escudero said only 21 Corona properties, including parking spaces, were actually presented in court by the prosecution, contrary to their claim.
Senator-judge Jinggoy Estrada supported Escudero, telling the prosecution to prevent themselves from disclosing documents that were not presented as evidence.
“So yung 21 or 24 properties, hindi pagmamay-ari ni Corona? Forty-five sinasabi niyo eh,” Estrada told prosecution head Rep. Niel Tupas Jr.
Tupas however explained that the 45 properties did not come the prosecution but from Land Registration Authority.
