The International Criminal Court Trial Chamber III has rejected the request of the Prosecution for the keys taken from former president Rodrigo Duterte when he was arrested and brought to The Hague on March 12 last year, stating that access to them is “neither necessary nor proportionate.“

DEKADA: July 1 marks exactly 10 years since the issuance of the Philippine National Police Command Memorandum Circular No. 16-2016 or ‘Project Double Barrel,’ which operationalized the Duterte administration’s nationwide anti-illegal drugs campaign.

The British judge reminded all lawyers involved in the proceedings to exercise caution when discussing the case or court rulings with the media.
