A Philippine court has issued an arrest warrant for Vice President Sara Duterte over alleged grave threats made against President Ferdinand Marcos Jr., his wife, and former House Speaker Martin Romualdez. The warrant, issued on September 4, 2026, by the Quezon City Regional Trial Court, stems from remarks Duterte allegedly made during an online press conference in late 2024. Bail was set at PHP120,000 for each of the three counts. Duterte's lawyer confirmed the warrant and stated that she would continue to exercise her legal remedies. The Department of Justice (DOJ) respects the court's ruling, and Malacañang, the presidential palace, has deferred to the judiciary.
