00:00The Department of Justice announced the decision of President Ferdinand R. Marcos Jr.

00:04if the Philippines will return as a member of the International Criminal Court

00:09in the face of the call of some personalities.

00:12Next, the DOJ reiterated that the former President Rodrigo Duterte was given a due process.

00:17Here is what it said.

00:21The Department of Justice reiterated that the law enforcement did not violate the commitment of the former President Rodrigo Duterte

00:28to the International Criminal Court or ICC.

00:31In the program Mike Abelive, Justice Undersecretary Nicholas Felix T. said

00:36that inside the Villamor Air Base on the day of the arrest,

00:39his lawyers and Dr. Dina were with the former President Duterte.

00:43He also did not violate the former President's food and medical assistance.

00:48Our law enforcers in Villamor did not violate the law.

00:54There were medical professionals from the law enforcement

00:58and the private doctors of PRRD were also allowed inside.

01:04Undersecretary T. also agreed with the process of arresting the former President Duterte.

01:10Before we turn over to the ICC,

01:14we have three requests from the ICC.

01:17First, to prove that the subject of the warrant of arrest is the former President, PRRD.

01:25Second, while the warrant of arrest is being executed, all his rights were violated.

01:33Third, the execution of the warrant of arrest went through the right process.

01:38The government is instructing the International Criminal Court to investigate the case

01:43and if the former President is needed.

01:46But if PRRD is needed from our government,

01:50we will see if we can give him the warrant.

01:55But for now, if we look at it,

01:57it looks like the ICC is giving him enough.

02:00And it looks like he has enough resources.

02:06Because as we reported,

02:08aside from his Filipino lawyers,

02:11they also have a contract as lawyers.

02:16The embassy in the Netherlands also agreed, according to T.,

02:19with the need of the former President.

02:21The re-integration of the Philippines into the ICC

02:24is in the decision of President Ferdinand R. Marcos Jr.

02:28Our withdrawal from the ICC in 2019,

02:32the effect of that is that we no longer have an obligation to the ICC.

02:37But because the ICC passed the warrant of arrest in Interpol,

02:43we were able to fulfill our obligations.

02:48Because in Interpol,

02:50it is in our interest to help Interpol.

02:56Because usually, they help us

02:59when we have requests

03:01to arrest various criminals.

03:06A good example of that is the help of Interpol

03:10in arresting the former congressman Arnie Tevez.

03:14The call of the DOJ to the public.

03:17The DOJ's statement,

03:19we also made it public last week,

03:22that I hope our countrymen will be convinced

03:26that the process of arresting PRRD

03:30and the prosecution against him has passed.

03:33There are grounds for this in the law.

03:35As I said, our membership in Interpol

03:38and the RA-9851

03:40and the needs of the ICC

03:43for PRRD to submit to them,

03:47the DOJ is fulfilling them.
