THE HAGUE, Netherlands (AP)
The International Criminal Court took custody of former
Philippine President Rodrigo Duterte on Wednesday, March 12,
2025, on a warrant accusing him of crimes against humanity for
deadly anti-drugs crackdowns he oversaw while in office.
Rights groups and families of victims hailed Duterte’s arrest, and
the court’s chief prosecutor, Karim Khan, called it “a crucial step
in our continuous work to ensure accountability for the victims of
the most serious crimes under ICC jurisdiction.”
Supporters of Duterte criticized the administration of current
Philippine President Ferdinand Marcos, Duterte’s political rival,
for arresting and surrendering the former leader to a court whose
jurisdiction his supporter’s dispute.
The 79-year-old former president arrived in the Netherlands on a
flight from Manila, where he was arrested on an ICC request
Tuesday.
The Dutch-based court said in a statement that medical
assistance was made available to Duterte as a precaution, in line
with standard procedures when a suspect arrives. The court did
not comment on his state of health.
An ambulance drove to the hangar where his plane was taken,
and medics wheeled a gurney inside. A police helicopter hovered
close to the airport, and later a black SUV was seen leaving the
airport accompanied by police. Its destination was not
immediately clear. Crowds gathered outside the detention center Students do the task
for ICC suspects.
The Philippine Embassy in The Hague provided consular
assistance to Duterte upon his arrival, including winter clothing
and care packages, the Philippine Foreign Ministry said in a
statement issued Thursday in Manila.
Within days, Duterte will face an initial appearance where the
court will confirm his identity, check that he understands the
charges against him and set a date for a hearing to assess if
prosecutors have sufficient evidence to send him to a full trial.
If his case goes to trial and he is convicted, Duterte could face a
maximum sentence of life imprisonment.
