The Philippine government should stop spending government funds to stonewall the ongoing investigation of the International Criminal Court into former President Rodrigo Duterte’s bloody war on drugs, detained former Sen. Leila de Lima said. | BPinlacINQ
De Lima said Duterte defenders in the administration of President Ferdinand “Bongbong” Marcos Jr. should realize that the ICC will “enforce the Rome Statute so long as the Philippine government does not undertake a serious, in-depth and comprehensive investigation and prosecution of the masterminds of Duterte’s drug war killings.
She further argued that government funds should not be spent stalling the ICC probe “as this only benefits those being investigated by the ICC, and not the Filipino people.”
