MANILA (Reuters) – The Philippine National Police on Wednesday said it has filed a formal complaint against Vice President Sara Duterte and several other people.

The complaints allege direct assault, disobedience, and grave coercion during an incident at the lower chamber of congress and a government hospital, the police said in a statement.

Duterte’s office said it would respond to the complaint later in a live address.
