ICC has not asked for arrest of dela Rosa, ‘co-perpetrators’ – Palace
The Philippine government has not yet received any official communication from Interpol regarding arrest warrants for individuals allegedly involved with former president Rodrigo Duterte in the International Criminal Court's (ICC) crimes against humanity case.
Palace Press Officer Claire Castro stated that as of now, there has been no communication about arrest warrants for Duterte's co-perpetrators.
This statement follows a report quoting Executive Secretary Lucas Bersamin, who indicated that an arrest could occur if the ICC issues a warrant and an Interpol red notice accompanies it.
Former president Duterte was previously arrested at the airport and turned over to the ICC Detention Center in The Hague, Netherlands, to await trial for his anti-drug campaign.
Senator Ronald "Bato" Dela Rosa is identified as one of the former president's co-accused due to his role as chief of police and lead implementer of the controversial war on drugs.
