Manila, Philippines – Former Philippine President Rodrigo Duterte was arrested on Tuesday by Manila International Airport Police on the Ordinance of the International Criminal Court in the context of a case of crime against humanity filed against him, said the Philippine Government.

Duterte was arrested after arrival Hong Kong And the police placed him in police custody on the orders of the ICC, which investigated the massive killings which occurred under the deadly repression of the former president against the illegal drugs, said the office of President Ferdinand Marcos in a statement.

The Manila of the International Police Manila has received an official copy of the arrest warrant against the World Court and the advice of arrest warrant was served to the former president, the government said.

He was not immediately clear where Duterte had been taken by the police. The government said the former 79 -year -old was in good health and was examined by government doctors.

“He is now under the care of the authorities,” said the government.

The ICC has started investigating drug murders under Duterte from November 1, 2011, when he was still mayor of the southern city of Davao, until March 16, 2019, as possible crimes against humanity. Duterte withdrawn the Philippines in 2019 from Rome’s status in a decision that human rights activists say that it was targeted to escape responsibility.

The administration of Duterte decided to suspend the investigation of the World Court at the end of 2021 by arguing that the Philippine authorities already examined the same allegations, arguing that the ICC – a court of last appeal – did not have jurisdiction.

The ICC appeal judges ruled in 2023 the investigation could resume and rejected the objections of the Duterte administration. Based in The Hague, the Netherlands, the ICC can intervene when countries are not willing or unable to continue suspects in the most heinous international crimes, including genocide, war crimes and crimes against humanity.

President Ferdinand Marcos Jr., who succeeded Duterte in 2022 and broke into a bitter political dispute with the former president, decided not to join the World Court. But the Marcos administration said it would cooperate if the ICC asked the international police to get into custody by an alleged red notice, a request for law enforcement organizations around the world to temporarily locate and stop a crime suspect.
