International Criminal Court in Philippines last December; arrest order vs Duterte soon: Senator


MANILA: Investigators from the International Criminal Court (ICC) were able to gather enough evidence against former President Rodrigo Duterte when they visited the country in December, and a warrant of arrest may be issued “very, very soon,” former Sen Antonio Trillanes IV said on Sunday (Jan 21).

“Based on my information, the ICC [investigators] have done what they needed to do in their initial investigation inside the country as far as the principal accused are concerned,” Trillanes told the Inquirer in a text message.
