Honeylet says she's suspended from visiting Duterte in ICC detention
Honeylet Avanceña, common-law wife of former president Rodrigo Duterte, has had her visitation rights to see him at the International Criminal Court (ICC) detention facility suspended.
Avanceña stated she was informed of her suspension during her last visit, just five minutes before it concluded, despite Duterte expecting her.
She believes her suspension is related to a July 19 phone call where she allegedly commented on Duterte's case, an accusation she denies knowledge of.
Avanceña has blamed Duterte's ICC-listed defense counsel, Nicholas Kaufman, for the ban, expressing frustration over being deprived of seeking other legal opinions.
Rodrigo Duterte's legal counsel, Nicholas Kaufman, had previously confirmed the denial of visits, clarifying that such rights are determined by detention center authorities and judges.
