Nakasaad sa Paragraph 2, Article 127 ng Rome Statute, ang kasunduan na nagtatatag ng ICC, na ang isang state party ay hindi nalilibre sa mga obligasyon nito sa panahon ng pagiging miyembro nito kahit kumalas na ito. Ang Pilipinas ay isang state party mula Nobyembre 1, 2011 hanggang Marso 16, 2019.
This is the fourth time Remulla skipped context regarding the jurisdiction of the ICC.

Hinamon ni Justice Secretary Jesus Crispin “Boying” Remulla ang International Criminal Court (ICC) na ipakita sa gobyerno ng Pilipinas ang “pattern” ng umano’y state-sponsored killings sa ilalim ng war on drugs ng administrasyong Duterte. Kulang ito sa konteksto.
