Far from the buzz at the Senate impeachment court, the upscale Medical City was quiet throughout, on Tuesday, as Chief Justice Renato Corona kept to himself at the hospital’s executive floor while his verdict was being read.
Against his doctors’ advice, Chief Justice Renato Corona is returning to the Senate impeachment court Friday amid warnings from his lawyers that the trial would be tarnished with illegality if the defense was forced to rest its case prematurely.
Attending the Impeachment Trial will pose a risk to Chief Justice Renato Corona, doctors from The Medical City said Thursday afternoon.
Doctors at the Medical City in Pasig City said Wednesday Chief Justice Renato Corona was being treated to prevent a “possible heart attack.”
Doctors monitoring the condition of Chief Justice Renato Corona fear a possible heart attack and are ruling out his return to the Senate impeachment tribunal in the next 48 hours to resume his testimony.
Chief Justice Renato Corona won’t make it to the Senate, acting as impeachment court, on Wednesday afternoon following the doctors’ announcement at The Medical City that he is a “very high-risk patient” and needed to be monitored closely for the next 48 hours.
The Senate early Wednesday has sent its own doctor to The Medical City hospital in Pasig City to check on the condition of Chief Justice Renato Corona, who was brought to the Intensive Care Unit of the hospital allegedly for possible heart attack.
