It appears that Remulla knows well the weight of the prosecution's evidence against the former senator. That's why he supports his people's move to block the bail petition if it's based on merit.
Moving to reopen one case and threatening to block her bail petition is far from being compassionate to a former senator and former chairman of the Commission on Human Rights. That is prolonging an injustice when its end appears to be drawing near.
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.

Article 127, paragraph 2 of the Rome Statute, the founding treaty of the ICC, states that a country that has withdrawn is not cleared of its obligations for incidents that occurred during its membership.

Responding to questions from a panel of independent human rights experts during the 136th session of the United Nations Human Rights Committee in Geneva last Oct. 11, Justice Secretary Jesus Crispin “Boying” Remulla claimed that ABS-CBN was “not shut down” but merely denied a new franchise. This needs context.

Sa ika-136 na sesyon ng United Nations Human Rights Committee sa Geneva noong Oktubre 11, muling iginiit ni Justice Secretary Jesus Crispin “Boying” Remulla ang posisyon ng gobyerno na ang International Criminal Court (ICC) ay “nawalan na ng hurisdiksyon” sa Pilipinas. Ito ay kulang sa konteksto.
Hopefully, all other drug suspects will be treated in the same way the law enforcers handled the case of the Justice secretary's son, regardless of their economic status or high connections.
