Snippet:
Malacañang downplayed a petition urging the Supreme Court to compel President Marcos to release a medical bulletin and undergo a hair follicle test. Palace press officer Claire Castro says the president has already shown his condition publicly. Castro cited a Supreme Court ruling stating that a president cannot be compelled to disclose medical records without a sufficient basis.
