Justice Secretary Vitaliano Aguirre II called “unconstitutional” the move by opposition senators to officially denounce the downgrade of murder charges against police officers implicated in the slay of detained Albuera, Leyte, Mayor Rolando Espinosa Sr. last November.

He claimed such Senate resolution introduced by the Liberal Party senators was tantamount to diminishing the powers of the President.
