00:00Former President Rodrigo Duterte can still file a case in the Philippines

00:05under the Administration's War on Drugs.

00:08Details in the national news of Harley Balbuena of PTV Manila.

00:14Aside from the International Criminal Court,

00:16the former President Rodrigo Duterte can also file a case in the Philippines

00:22under the War on Drugs.

00:24According to the law expert, Atty. Domingo Cayosa,

00:27there is a self-proclaimed Philippine law that punishes crimes against humanity.

00:33This is Republic Act No. 9851 that came into force in 2009.

00:39Cayosa said that the significance of crimes against humanity in the law

00:44is the same as what is stated in the Rome Statute of the ICC.

00:48That's why Duterte can also answer this.

00:57It penalizes crimes against humanity, war crimes, genocide.

01:03Very similar to the crimes that are within the jurisdiction of the ICC.

01:12When asked why Duterte's case reached the ICC,

01:17he said that he can file a case here in the Philippines.

01:20Cayosa said that many victims filed their cases, but they were left out.

01:27We have accounts, documented accounts of families of victims

01:31who went to the police for investigation.

01:34They went to the fiscals.

01:36They went to government agencies in charge of the criminal justice system.

01:40But nothing happened.

01:42They were just circled.

01:45They were arrested.

01:46They were issued.

01:47That's why they were not able to file a case.

01:49As of now, Mayor Nery Colmenares,

01:52who is the legal counsel of the EJK victims,

01:56said that the victims' fear during Duterte's time was really great.

02:01Although Duterte has immunity in local cases during his time as president,

02:05he does not have immunity when it comes to the crimes that happened

02:09during his time as mayor of Davao City,

02:11including the murders committed by the Umanoy Davao Death Squad,

02:16which also included the deaths in his arrest by the ICC.

02:21According to Colmenares,

02:23they were able to open the case of other cases in the country.

02:26Not only Duterte, but also his former police generals.

02:32It's possible.

02:33In fact, what I want to investigate,

02:35aside from President Duterte,

02:37is his generals.

02:38Those who implemented it.

02:41Of course, they pulled the trigger.

02:43If the local case continues,

02:45Colmenares said,

02:46they are asking for the help of the current government

02:49to access the documents related to the deaths in the war on drugs.

02:54He still needs to strengthen the feelings of the victims' families

02:58who, until now, still feel great fear.

03:02Even now, they are afraid.

03:04Because the police that did it were still there.

03:07It was still active service.

03:08In fact, I talked to someone in Cebu.

03:11He said,

03:12I can still see the police that killed my son.

03:15From PTV, Howardy Valbena for Balitang Pambansa.
