MANILA (Updated 5:36 p.m.) — Members of the influential Catholic Bishops’ Conference of the Philippines (CBCP) refused to issue a statement calling for the resignation of Chief Justice Renato Corona, who is now under trial for graft and corruption, among other offenses.

Instead, the bishops called on stakeholders in the impeachment trial to expedite the process so that the country can “return to normalcy”.
