The Sandiganbayan is a special court in the Philippines that handles cases involving government officials accused of corruption and other related offenses. Established in 1978, it aims to promote accountability and transparency in public service. The court has jurisdiction over cases involving graft, bribery, and other crimes committed by public officials. This court is composed of several divisions, each led by a presiding justice. The Sandiganbayan plays a crucial role in the country's legal system by ensuring that those in power are held accountable for their actions, thereby upholding the rule of law and protecting public interest.
