Go, Bato, Padilla seek Rodrigo Duterte’s house arrest in The Hague
Senators Robin Padilla, Ronald "Bato" Dela Rosa, and Christopher Go have filed a Senate resolution seeking house arrest for former President Rodrigo Duterte.
They cited his old age, various medical conditions, and social isolation as reasons for his health being in danger of deteriorating further.
The resolution urges the Philippine government to advocate for more humane conditions for Duterte, even after the country's withdrawal from the Rome Statute.
Vice President Sara Duterte confirmed that her father has lost a lot of weight and is "skin and bones" since his detention.
Senator Alan Peter Cayetano had previously filed a similar resolution, which Malacañang said was "noted."
