Pagiging bukas ng Pilipinas sa drug war probe, aprub sa ICC

MANILA, Philippines – Nagpahayag ng pag-apruba ang International Criminal Court (ICC) sa pagiging bukas ng Pilipinas na makipagtulungan sa imbestigasyon ng ICC kaugnay sa drug war-related deaths sa administrasyong Duterte.

“The Office welcomes cooperation from State Parties… and looks forward to further exchanges with all relevant stakeholders, including national authorities, civil society, and others,” saad sa pahayag ng ICC.

Noong Enero 23, sinabi ni Justice Secretary Jesus Crispin Remulla na maaaring makipagtulungan ang pamahalaan ng Pilipinas sa ilang aspeto ng ICC probe.

“We will talk to them soon in a very well-defined manner, in the spirit of comity,” ani Remulla.

“Some people are trying to bridge the divide to bring us together, so we can sit at one table.”

Sa kabila nito, iginiit niya na “lines have to be drawn properly.”

Tinitimbang din ni Executive Secretary at dating Supreme Court Justice Lucas Bersamin ang sitwasyon at sinabing ang kooperasyon ng Pilipinas sa ICC ay nakadepende sa magiging aksyon ng International Criminal Police Organization (Interpol).

“If the ICC makes a move, and courses the move through the Interpol, and the Interpol makes the request to us for the arrest of delivery of the custody of a person subject to ICC jurisdiction, we will respond favorably or positively to the Interpol request,” paliwanag ni Bersamin. RNT/JGC
