The International Criminal Court has found substantial evidence of crimes against humanity and murder against former Pres. Rodrigo Duterte. The ICC will move forward with the trial.

Today, on April 22, the Appeals Chamber will announce if Duterte will stand trial at the ICC.

It has been 60 days since the pretrial hearing, where overwhelming evidence from 539 victims exposed the structure of power and climate of impunity that Duterte and his co-perpetrators created through the brutal drug war.

Duterte may not show up in court but the world, and especially the loved ones of his 30,000+ victims will be paying attention. We welcome the revelation of eight co-perpetrators in Duterte's deadly scheme and swift action must be taken to ensure they are held to account. With the critical addition of at least 500 claimants in the trial, we remain cautiously optimistic that the trial will bring justice and Duterte would be held accountable for his crimes against the Filipino people.

We welcome the ICC arrest warrant for former PNP Chief and current Senator Bato Dela Rosa for his crimes in Duterte’s drug war. The Philippine government must immediately facilitate Bato’s arrest and transfer to the Hague where he must face consequences as chief architect of Duterte’s drug war.

JUSTICE DELAYED IS JUSTICE DENIED! PUT DUTERTE ON TRIAL NOW!

The International Criminal Court’s indefinite postponement of Duterte's confirmation hearing is a disgrace. Duterte has been given more grace and leeway than was ever provided to his 30,000+ drug war victims and the thousands more in his all out war against activists and human rights defenders.

Red-tagging is a threat to people’s life, liberty, and security!
Stop the attacks on family members of drug war victims!
Stop Red-Tagging ICC lawyer Krissy Conti! 

Duterte’s troll army has returned in full force since he was arrested by the International Criminal Court (ICC) on March 11. Thousands of his supporters, both organic and paid, have resurfaced to attack the families of victims of the drug war to defend the fascist tyrant. One example is of Sheerah Escudero, whose brother was murdered by the Duterte regime in 2017. Days after Duterte’s arrest, she received death threats by numerous Diehard Duterte Supporters (DDS) on her Facebook page for simply fighting for justice for her slain brother.
