Honeylet Avanceña, Kitty Duterte seen entering ICC detention center
Honeylet Avanceña and her daughter Veronica "Kitty" Duterte were able to enter the International Criminal Court (ICC) detention facility in The Hague, Netherlands, on Friday, March 28, after previous attempts were unsuccessful.
They had previously tried to visit former President Rodrigo Duterte on Wednesday and Thursday.
Outside the facility, supporters gathered to celebrate Duterte's 80th birthday, with Vice President Sara Duterte, Senator Robin Padilla, and Atty. Harry Roque delivering speeches.
Duterte was arrested on March 11 at the request of the ICC as part of its probe into his "war on drugs".
The ICC warrant alleges that the 79-year-old Duterte created and funded death squads responsible for murders of suspected drug users and dealers.
