Sa loob ng unang anim na buwan ng 2021, inaasahang magdedesisyon si International Criminal Court (ICC) chief prosecutor Fatou Bensouda kung kanyang irerekomenda ang paglulunsad ng imbestigasyon ukol sa madugong war on drugs ni Pangulong Rodrigo Duterte.
Nakatakdang umupo sa ika-16 ng Hunyo 2021 bilang bagong chief prosecutor ng International Criminal Court (ICC) ang British lawyer na si Karim Khan, ang kapalit ng magre-retirong si Fatou Bensouda. Bago bumaba sa puwesto, tinitiyak ni Bensouda na kanyang ilalabas ang desisyon kung dapat imbestigahan ang “crimes against humanity” na naganap umano sa kampanya laban sa droga ni Pangulong Rodrigo Duterte.
Sa pag upo ni Karim Khan bilang chief prosecutor ng International Criminal Court (ICC) sa Hunyo, hinaharap niya ang posibleng imbestigasyon sa mga krimen laban sa sangkatauhan na ginawa umano sa kampanya ng Pilipinas laban sa iligal na droga.
When Karim Khan assumes the position of chief prosecutor of the International Criminal Court (ICC) in June, he faces the possibility of investigating alleged crimes against humanity committed in the Philippines’ campaign against illegal drugs.
Chief prosecutors of the international court have a non-renewable term of nine years. Bensouda’s started in 2012 and is scheduled to end in June.
Hindi totoo ang sinabi ni Pangulong Rodrigo Duterte na ang lahat ng mga hukom ng International Criminal Court (ICC) ay "Puti" nang sagutin niya ang update noong Disyembre 2020 ng paunang pagsusuri ng korte sa mga hinihinalang krimen laban sa sangkatauhan na nagawa sa giyera ng gobyerno kontra droga.
President Rodrigo Duterte mistakenly claimed that all the judges of the International Criminal Court (ICC) are “White” when he responded to the December 2020 update of the court’s preliminary examination into alleged crimes against humanity committed in the government’s war on drugs.
What's so important about United Nations High Commissioner for Human Rights Michelle Bachelet’s report released last Thursday on President Rodrigo Roa Duterte’s drug war?
Late last year, ICC prosecutor Fatou Bensouda told a group of human rights advocates from the Philippines in The Hague for a conference: “I am going to Manila next year.”
The Office of the Prosecutor (OTP) of the International Criminal Court may wrap up its preliminary probe on President Duterte’s drug war sooner than expected.
