Duterte tells supporters: Don't meddle in ICC case
Former President Rodrigo Duterte has urged his supporters not to interfere in his International Criminal Court (ICC) case and to leave the proceedings to his legal team and the court.
Vice President Sara Duterte conveyed her father's directive, stating that the former president asked them not to discuss the case publicly.
She added that Duterte's supporters should refrain from commenting on the case, especially concerning the complainants or complaints filed before the ICC.
The Vice President also mentioned that a freeze order on her assets related to the ICC case is unlikely but would be considered harassment if it happened.
Duterte also advised his supporters to guard their votes against potential cheating in the upcoming midterm elections.
