ICC Charges Rodrigo Duterte on Crimes Against Humanity

The International Criminal Court (ICC) has formally charged Rodrigo Duterte, the former president of the Philippines, with potential involvement in the deaths of dozens of individuals. The charges stem from allegations of crimes against humanity, including murder and other offenses related to the suppression of dissent and alleged human rights abuses during his rule. The ICC alleges that Duterte’s administration’s actions resulted in significant loss of life and caused substantial suffering. Investigations and legal proceedings are ongoing, and the ICC is examining evidence to determine the extent of the alleged crimes.
