Most adult Filipinos last month believed that Chief Justice Renato Corona kept hidden wealth, that he intended to help former President Gloria Macapagal-Arroyo to flee the country and that he accepted special favors in office, a survey by Social Weather Stations (SWS) found.

The survey also found that more than 46 percent believed that people power should be used to force Corona to step down should the Senate impeachment court decide to acquit him.

The opinion poll was conducted on March 10-13, at a time when the defense panel was starting its presentation. The impeachment trial adjourned on March 23 for a Lenten break and will resume on May 7.
