The whistleblower had implicated Dela Rosa as among the alleged “enablers” of Duterte.
“Hindi pa kami naguusap ni president pero kung gusto niya, pinapaayos ko ang mga papers ko ngayon for my proper accreditation if it will come to that point,”Based on ICC guidelines, “experienced lawyers who wish to represent defendants or victims as counsel before the Court must be admitted to the List of Counsel.”
In a decision dated Monday, March 27, the ICC rejected the appeal of the Philippine government to suspend an ongoing investigation into Duterte’s violent war on drugs while appeal proceedings were being held.
