MANILA, Feb 10 (Reuters) - Philippine President Ferdinand Marcos Jr. avoided impeachment on Tuesday, a largely expected outcome after allies in the lower house of Congress voted overwhelmingly to dismiss the complaints against him.
The vote came a week after the House of Representatives' justice committee dismissed two impeachment complaints against Marcos, saying they lacked substance. Marcos was accused of betraying the public's trust, committing graft and corruption, and violating the constitution.
