Pili lang ang mga reklamong umaabot sa International Criminal Court na dapat ay hindi nalitis sa mga lokal na korte ng bansa ng nasasakdal. Bakit nga umabot pa sa ICC ang reklamo laban kay dating Pangulong Rodrigo Duterte?

00:00Complaints to the International Criminal Court are being filed
00:05that should not be filed in the local courts of the country that are being violated.
00:10Why did the complaint against the former President Rodrigo Duterte reach the ICC?
00:16The explanation of the experts in the prosecution of Mackie Pulido.
00:23The usual question of the field of the former President Rodrigo Duterte
00:27Why should it not be filed here in the Philippines?
00:30In 2022, the Marcos Administration asked the International Criminal Court
00:34to stop the Office of the Prosecutor to continue their investigation in the Duterte Drug War.
00:40The ICC has no jurisdiction because the country has already left the Rome Statute in 2019
00:46and our government is investigating the cases in the War on Drugs.
00:50But because the process was continued by the pre-trial chamber,
00:53the International Law Expert, Atty. Michael Chiu, said
00:56that according to the ICC, the Philippines' actions were not enough
01:00to punish the person responsible for the crime.
01:04So even if we have prosecution and investigation,
01:09what the ICC checks is what we call same conduct and same person.
01:18He is not the same person because he is not the former President Duterte,
01:22the main architect of the War on Drugs.
01:26He did not capture the systematic nature of the War on Drugs.
01:31So he is not the same conduct.
01:33In Article 17 of the Rome Statute, if there is a jurisdiction of the International Criminal Court,
01:39the court will only accept the case if the state is unwilling or unable to investigate the case.
01:46Unable if the judicial system does not work.
01:49If the state is unwilling or does not want to investigate,
01:52there are three cases according to the Rome Statute.
01:54First, the state's actions are to cover up the suspect.
01:57Second, if there is a long delay.
02:00And third, there is no intention to punish the suspect.
02:03The convicts in the cases are the low-level.
02:07The ICC did not build it to eliminate the low-level personalities.
02:13His target is the one who is responsible.
02:16The one who planned it, the one who ordered it.
02:19Not the culprit.
02:20Before the case reached the ICC,
02:23human rights lawyers like the NUPL or National Union of People's Lawyers
02:28tried to file cases during the Duterte administration in 2017.
02:33Atty. Cristina Conti said it was impossible to answer
02:37the president who did not follow the order of wide-ranging killings.
02:41If it is too high, you will not be able to reach it.
02:45The ICC is what we went through back then.
02:48It is clear to us that this is not just a simple incident of killings.
02:52But Duterte is no longer the president,
02:54so why did he not just be executed in the Philippines?
02:57Justice Secretary Crispin Remulia also said
03:00after listening to the Senate that the situation is better now.
03:03If it is better now, why did they not just file cases here in the Philippines?
03:07It is already better. It has changed.
03:09I cannot ask that to those who demanded in the ICC.
03:12We did not hold those people.
03:15We do not know them.
03:17Malacanang said that this cannot be done anymore
03:20because the investigation of the ICC has already started.
03:23The prosecutor of the ICC has decided to continue the investigation
03:28because the former government did not fulfill their promise
03:33that they will have a proper investigation.
03:37For GMA Integrated News, Mackie Pulido reporting for 24 Hours.
