MANILA (UPDATED) -- Office of the Vice President (OVP) Special Disbursing Officer Gina Acosta was rushed out of the House Committee on Good Government and Public Accountability hearing on Monday evening.

Acosta faced lawmakers for the first time in the morning, after not attending the previous hearings of the House panel. 

Batangas 2nd District. Rep. Gerville Luistro began interpellating Acosta past 4 in the afternoon, following the resumption of the hearing.

She was initially being asked about her roles prior to becoming OVP Special Disbursing Officer.

Later in the hearing, Acosta was asked about her role in disbursing the confidential funds of the OVP. She admitted that she entrusted P125 million to Vice Presidential Security and Protection Group (VPSPG) Commander Col. Raymund Lachica, the security officer of OVP.

Rep. Luistro then questioned Acosta if she knew Mary Grace Piattos, Kokoy Villamin and other personalities that were in the acknowledgement receipts shown in previous hearings. She answered no and admitted she was feeling shaky. 

In the same hearing, Vice President Sara Duterte asked the House panel to temporarily suspend the session to give Acosta some "air." 

Past six in the evening, Acosta was seen being attended to by medical personnel.

She was later brought out through a wheelchair and loaded to an ambulance.

Duterte temporarily left the hearing to accompany her before she was brought to the Veterans Memorial Medical Center, according to the Vice President.

Duterte returned to the hearing to ask the House panel to allow her to leave so she can accompany Acosta. She said she will face them again in the next hearing.

The Vice President was allowed to exit and swiftly left to head to Acosta.
