Senator Risa Hontiveros said Saturday that the arrest warrant issued by the International Criminal Court for Russian President Vladimir Putin should serve as a "fair warning" to those who continue to deny justice to victims of the previous administration's war on drugs.arrest warrants for Putin and Maria Lvova-Belova, Russia's presidential commissioner for children's rights, on the war crime accusation of unlawfully deporting Ukrainian children.
"Moscow may continue to argue that the warrants are moot, but member-states of the ICC are duty-bound to arrest those upon whom warrants are served when they come into the territory of an ICC member-state. This already severely curtails the movement of perpetrators. Further, Kyiv has accepted the jurisdiction of the ICC over crimes on its territory," she added."I can only hope that there is something to be learned from this.
The ICC is looking into allegations that crimes against humanity occurred in the implementation of the campaign against illegal drugs under former President Rodrigo Duterte. Senator Ronald "Bato" Dela Rosa Dela Rosa, the national police chief during the height of the drug war under the Duterte administration, maintained that the justice system in the country is already working, saying that "the Philippines is far from being a failed state.""Wala naman tayo control sa kanila kung maglabas sila ng warrant of arrest; wala tayong problema dyan ang tanong sino mag-implement ng warrant of arrest na ‘yan.
