The Anti-Money Laundering Council (AMLC) disclosed during the third hearing of the House Committee on Justice that covered and suspicious bank transactions involving Vice President Sara Duterte and her husband, Atty. Manases Carpio, amounted to ₱6.7 billion.
According to AMLC Executive Director Ronel Buenaventura, Duterte’s accounts recorded 313 covered transactions and 17 suspicious transactions, while Carpio’s accounts showed 317 covered transactions and 16 suspicious transactions.
Of the total, ₱3.77 billion was attributed to the Vice President and ₱2.99 billion to her husband, with ₱791 million still undetermined as either inflow or outflow.
The AMLC explained that “covered transactions” refer to those exceeding ₱500,000 in a single day, while “suspicious transactions” are financial activities deemed questionable and potentially linked to illegal operations.
