The main opposition Democratic Party has pledged to uncover the truth surrounding the recent death of a senior official from the state anti-corruption agency, alleging that government pressure ultimately led to his demise. The official had been overseeing investigations into politically sensitive cases, including those involving high-profile figures such as the first lady and the opposition leader. DP representatives have asserted that the official had expressed distress and indicated being coerced to close these cases before his death. They have accused the government of contributing to the official's demise, emphasizing the emotional toll it must have taken on someone with over 20 years of public service in overseeing anti-corruption efforts. In response, the ruling People Power Party has expressed regret over the DP's efforts to exploit this "unfortunate incident" for political gain, cautioning against framing the official as a victim of government pressure before all the facts have been confirmed. The official was discovered deceased in an apartment with a suicide note, prompting a contentious debate over the circumstances leading to his tragic end.
