Naging matunog sa balita nitong mga nakaraang araw ang ICC at ang plano nitong imbestigahan ang mga umanong “crimes against humanity” na naganap dito sa Pilipinas sa kasagsagan ng war on drugs ni Pangulong Duterte. Pero ano nga ba ang ibig-sabihin nito?
Former chief prosecutor of the International Criminal Court Fatou Bensouda said her office found “a reasonable basis to believe” the Duterte government used state security forces to “deliberately” kill 12,000 to 30,000 Filipinos between 2016 and 2019 as part of its anti-war drug campaign.
Both pro and anti-Duterte camps are reacting to this issue.
Anti-drug war advocates say it’s about time while pro-Duterte apologists say the move is politically motivated.
In this episode, we are joined by ABS-CBN Justice beat reporter Mike Navallo and Human Rights Watch Senior Researcher Carlos Conde.
