TINAWAG ng Palasyo na grandstanding ang panawagan ng napatalsik na si dating Chief Justice Maria Lourdes Sereno kay Pangulong Duterte na magbitiw sa puwesto.
Ani Presidential Spokesperson Harry Roque, hindi na palalampasin ng Malacanang ang ginagawang mga pahayag ni Sereno laban kay Duterte.
“We have earlier refrained from commenting on the former Chief Justice Maria Lourdes Sereno’s call for the President to resign. However, the former top magistrate has been engaged in grandstanding and seeking media coverage, pointing an accusing finger at President Duterte for the result of the quo warranto petition filed against her,” sabi ni Roque.
Nauna nang hinamon ni Sereno si Duterte na magbitiw na sa kanyang katungkulan dahil ito umano angbnasa likod ng kanyang pagkakasibak.
“We consider this unfortunate for the truth is, four other fingers point to her. Ex-CJ Sereno should closely look at the mirror to see who is behind the Supreme Court ruling. She herself violated the Constitution by not filing her SALN (Statement of Assets Liabilities and Networth) and she herself managed to alienate her own colleagues at the High Court,” ayon pa kay Roque.
Sa botong 8-6, pinaboran ng mga mahistrado ang quo warranto petition na inihain ni Solicitor General Jose Calida laban kay Sereno.
“The President has not violated the Constitution, and unlike the former Chief Justice, PRRD enjoys high satisfaction, approval, performance, and trust ratings from the Filipino people,” giit ni Roque.
