00:00This is Rodrigo Roa Duterte.
00:12Good evening, Luzon Visayas and Mindanao.
00:16The former President Rodrigo Duterte remains in the hospital inside the ICC Detention Center.
00:23But he is in a good condition, according to his son, Vice President Sara Duterte.
00:29The Vice President is also in talks with foreign lawyers to form the All-Foreign Defense Team of the former President.
00:36Next, the former Executive Secretary Salvador Medialdea will also join the defense team.
00:42The latest on The Hague, The Netherlands is broadcast live by Maris Umali. Maris.
00:49Mel, Emil, the former President Rodrigo Duterte is in talks with and visited by Vice President Sara Duterte and her father
00:59here in her detention facility here in the Skiveningen Prison.
01:03This is where they planned to form the defense team of her father.
01:09Her father also asked her to go home because she is in a good condition.
01:15Thank you. You have one minute.
01:17An All-Foreign Defense Team is now being formed by the former President Rodrigo Duterte
01:22to defend him in the International Criminal Court.
01:25This is confirmed by Vice President Sara Duterte,
01:28who is in talks with foreign lawyers who have experience in the ICC.
01:33Duterte's first lead counsel was British-Israeli lawyer Nicholas Kaufman,
01:38who also became a lawyer in the ICC.
01:41John Pierre Bemba, the former Vice President of the Congo,
01:44who was faced with war crimes and crimes against humanity.
01:48I still have talks with lawyers.
01:51Another lawyer is coming.
01:54I will interview him to join the team.
01:58It's time for their defense team to be formed.
02:01The former Executive Secretary Salvador Medialdea,
02:04who was brought to the hospital after his condition worsened,
02:08will withdraw the attorney Medialdea
02:12because there are only limited slots for lawyers.
02:17We want all the lawyers on board who have ICC experience.
02:24Aside from Medialdea, the defense team also did not include the Vice President,
02:28who is currently in the ICC.
02:32Aside from Medialdea, the defense team also did not include the Vice President,
02:36who was brought home by his father.
02:39The former Presidential Spokesperson Attorney Harry Roque was also not included.
02:43The basis of his stay in the Netherlands has not yet been established.
02:53We don't want complications.
02:56We want him to focus on his asylum.
03:00We want our lawyers to focus on the case.
03:03If Roque still wants the former Presidential Spokesperson to stay,
03:06he needs to discuss this with the FPRRD.
03:10We asked Attorney Roque for his reaction, but he said no comment.
03:15Vice President Sara also said that her father is still in the hospital part
03:20where he is staying to monitor the doctors.
03:23He is still inside the hospital.
03:26He is not yet on-signature.
03:29He is still waiting for his doctor's assessment.
03:33But her father's morale is high.
03:35In fact, his friends are already working inside the prison.
03:39He said that he is not doing anything outside because he is not yet a mayor.
03:44So, he might as well just rent inside.
03:46So, he has a routine.
03:49So, he can still make it.
03:50Is he enjoying?
03:52Oh, I have to tell you, he is charming.
03:55He is very friendly with people inside.
04:00So, they already have a banter.
04:03And then he said that he doesn't regret anything that he did
04:07in his work for the country.
04:11And the country saw the results of his service for the country.
04:19He continues to work for the hotel.
04:22The temperature is comfortable and controlled.
04:24But he is not free.
04:26He is in a very good spirit.
04:28I asked him how is the food.
04:30He said that there is rice.
04:32And then I asked him how is the food.
04:35He said that it is half-half.
04:38So, I don't know what half-half means.
04:40He asked for half-half.
04:41He asked for half-half.
04:42He said that he can bring a letter inside the prison.
04:45But he is being examined by the detention facility.
04:49Although he did not have a hard time visiting the Amasa Detention Facility,
04:53the process he is going through is very strict.
04:56Every time I need to go there to get a message from him,
05:01I send it online, I submit it, and then they respond.
05:07And then he is the one who says yes or no.
05:10But apparently, the rules here are that the detainee is the one who says yes or no.
05:15You apply, and then he'll say yes or no.
05:17The former President said that the family should not be allowed to go inside the prison.
05:21We talked to President Duterte.
05:25He said that my siblings should not be allowed to go inside.
05:29Because President Duterte is unmarried.
05:32So, he's single.
05:33So, the next of kin is our children.
05:36And he said that they should not go inside because they have nothing to do here
05:42unless they want to go with us.
05:46According to the upcoming rally here in the Netherlands on March 23,
05:50and in other rallies to support him,
05:53the former President said that he is thankful, but he does not want to be disrupted.
06:03Emil, according to the latest condition of the former Executive Secretary Salvador Medialdea
06:09who was rushed to the hospital yesterday,
06:11we talked to Senator Robin Padilla earlier.
06:14He was only able to visit the hospital.
06:16According to him, the condition of the former Executive Secretary is fine.
06:21He was able to talk to her.
06:22But apparently, she needs to remain confined in the hospital for now.
06:27And Senator Robin Padilla said that even though this former Executive Secretary is in an emergency,
06:36he is still thinking of repeatedly fulfilling the needs of the former President.
06:42Senator Robin Padilla is also waiting here in the detention facility
06:47to wait if his request to visit the former President will be approved as a political ally.
06:54Meanwhile, we are also waiting here for Attorney Nicholas Kaufman,
06:58the lead counsel of the former President,
07:00to let him know what the latest situation is.
07:04According to him, within a week, the defense team of the former President will be formed
07:11here in his front-line complaint, Crimes Against Humanity, in the International Criminal Court.
07:16So, that's the latest from here in The Hague, Netherlands.
07:19Back to you, Emil.
07:21Thank you very much, Maris Umali.
