00:00The Philippines will not stop the prosecutors of the ICC from talking to some people related to the Duterte drug war, according to the Solicitor General.

00:09But the government will not help in the process.

00:12Sandra Aguinaldo is on the scene.

00:14In the preparation of the International Criminal Court of ICC against the former President Rodrigo Duterte and other officials behind the bloody drug war of his administration,

00:30the ICC Office of the Prosecutor gave assistance to the government of the Philippines to interview the five people mentioned in a communication.

00:40According to Solicitor General Menardo Guevara, the government of the Philippines will not stop this because this is part of the process of applying for a warrant of arrest.

00:50The prosecutor needs to do this because before he applies for a warrant of arrest in the pre-trial chamber of the ICC,

01:01he needs to show that he investigated all the facts.

01:06Whether incriminating or exonerating, he needs to show that he did everything to give all persons concerned a chance to explain their position.

01:20But Guevara added that even if the government will not stop the prosecution of the ICC, it will not help in the process.

01:28The Philippines withdrew from the Rome Statute in 2019 that violates the ICC.

01:34We have no relationship with the ICC. If they ask for cooperation from us, we have no legal duty to cooperate with them.

01:45Even if they want to continue their investigation, we cannot stop it.

01:52Guevara did not say who are the five people that the ICC prosecutor wants to talk to.

01:58But former Senator Antonio Trillanes IV said in his social media post that he is the former PNP chief and now Senator Bato de la Rosa,

02:07former PNP chief Oscar Albayarde, former PNP generals Romeo Karamat Jr., Edelberto Leonardo, and Eleazar Mata.

02:17In the document released by Trillanes, he said that these people are suspects in the case related to the war against drugs.

02:24Albayarde said that he is ready to face the investigation.

02:27It is a big example for our sovereignty and it is also an example for our justices because we have a law here and justice, perfectly functioning judiciary, justice system here in our country.

02:43While Karamat was defended by Oplan Tukhang, the anti-drug campaign of the Duterte administration.

02:49In the province of Bulacan where I was the provincial director then, I could say that the Oplan Tukhang was very successful because there were so many surrenders during that time.

03:02Senator de la Rosa said that the allegations against him are like replicas.

03:09We would like to invite Mata and Leonardo.

03:12For GMA Integrated News, Sandra Aguinaldo, Nakatutok 24 Horas.
