A string of inaccurate statements from incumbent officials has emerged after the International Criminal Court (ICC) announced on Jan. 26 that it will resume its drug war probe in the Philippines.
Among the five considerations of the ICC Pre-Trial Chamber I were the pronouncements encouraging the killings under the drug war by former president Rodrigo Duterte and other officials and existence of drug watchlists.
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.
Binatikos ni Justice Secretary Jesus Crispin “Boying” Remulla ang International Criminal Court (ICC) dahil sa “pagpipilit na pumasok sa Pilipinas” upang imbestigahan ang mga pagpatay na may kaugnayan sa droga noong panahon ng administrasyong Duterte sa kabila ng pagkalas ng bansa sa Netherlands-based tribunal. Kailangan nito ng konteksto.
Article 127, paragraph 2 of the Rome Statute, the founding treaty of the ICC, states that a country that has withdrawn is not cleared of its obligations for incidents that occurred during its membership.

Contrary to Remulla’s statement, Cambodia and Timor-Leste are signatories to the International Criminal Court (ICC).
Hindi totoo ang sinabi ni Justice Secretary Jesus Crispin “Boying” Remulla na walang bansa sa Association of Southeast Asian Nations (ASEAN) na miyembro ng International Criminal Court (ICC).
