'IT IS CONGRESSMAN CHEL DIOKNO'

Forensic financial analyst Atty. Alexander Cabrera testified on the 38th day of the impeachment trial on Monday, October 12. He said House prosecutor Rep. Chel Diokno asked him to be an expert witness in Vice President Sara Duterte’s impeachment trial. Cabrera shared that he received his appointment letter in June 2026 and is working pro bono.

During cross-examination by defense lawyer Kristine Ferrer, Cabrera said he found possible violations in Duterte’s SALNs, even though he has never worked as a government employee or filed a SALN himself. He explained that he first met Diokno in person last year at a panel discussion with the Good Governance Advocates of the Philippines. (Video courtesy of Senate of the Philippines)
