LEADERS of the House of Representatives quad committee on Monday dismissed Vice President Sara Duterte's claim of political harassment.

During the committee's hearing last Friday, the vice president's husband, Manases Carpio, and brother, Davao City 1st District Rep. Paolo Duterte, were linked to a shabu shipment in 2018.
