Sa hindi bababa sa pangalawang pagkakataon, inulit ni senatorial candidate Salvador Panelo ang isang maling pahayag na ang International Criminal Court (ICC) ay "walang hurisdiksyon" na imbestigahan ang mga umano’y krimen laban sa sangkatauhan na nauugnay sa war on drugs ni Pangulong Rodrigo Duterte.

For at least the second time, senatorial candidate Salvador Panelo repeated a wrong claim that the International Criminal Court (ICC) has “no jurisdiction” to investigate alleged crimes against humanity associated with President Rodrigo Duterte’s war on drugs.
No official statements or news reports quoted Robredo saying this.
Even as the country grappled with new strains of Covid-19 last year, the Duterte government’s drug war continued to claim more lives at the average rate of three deaths every two days.
The International Criminal Court (ICC) has clarified that its decision to suspend temporarily its investigation into the government’s controversial drug war does not have “blanket or general effect” on the probe.
Describing as “paper-thin” the government’s claim that it is investigating alleged crimes against humanity related to the Duterte administration’s war on drugs, two lawyers’ groups urged the International Criminal Court (ICC) to allow the office of Prosecutor Karim Khan to continue with its probe.
United Nations High Commissioner for Human Rights (UN OHCHR) Michelle Bachelet said on Thursday that she “remains disturbed” over reports of “continuing and severe” human rights violations across the Philippines despite the government’s claims that it is addressing the issue.
Sa kanyang paglabas sa Talk to the People noong Okt. 4, ipinahiwatig ni Pangulong Rodrigo Duterte na sinimulan na niyang pag-aralan ang kanyang kinabukasan sa labas ng Malacanang.

The International Criminal Court (ICC) will proceed with the full-blown investigation into the alleged crimes against humanity committed by President Rodrigo Duterte in his war on drugs.
