Former Senator Leila de Lima is considering legal action to hold accountable former President Rodrigo Duterte and other individuals allegedly behind her detention due to charges related to illegal drugs.In an interview with Sandra Aguinaldo that aired on “24 Oras,” De Lima said she felt “at peace” following the acquittal of her third and last pending drug case. “Napakaginhawa ng pakiramdam ko. I feel so at peace, nakakahinga na ako nang maluwag ngayon,” the ex-legislator said.
The ex-legislator also called on the Marcos administration to reconsider its position on the ICC probe, saying coordinating with the international court does not equate to surrendering the country’s sovereignty. “You are not really surrendering in the fundamental sense of the word, 'yung sovereignty ng Pilipinas. May obligasyon ka bilang state party,” she said. “May mga kakulangan ang ating justice system. Ang mga mapapanagot lang are the low-level perpetrators but not the mastermind.
