Why It Matters
Former Philippine President Rodrigo Duterte is facing charges of crimes against humanity at the International Criminal Court (ICC) related to his administration's war on drugs. The ICC had previously announced its intention to investigate allegations of human rights violations during this campaign. The Philippines officially withdrew from the ICC in 2019.
总台记者当地时间21日获悉，国际刑事法院第一预审分庭驳回了菲律宾前总统杜特尔特辩护团队提出的上诉。
4月23日，国际刑事法院确认了针对菲律宾前总统杜特尔特的指控。据悉，国际刑事法院第一预审分庭裁定，杜特尔特对三项谋杀罪名均负有刑事责任，这些罪名构成所谓“反人类罪”。国际刑事法院声称，将以3项所谓“反人类罪”罪名对菲律宾前总统杜特尔特进行审判。
杜特尔特此前在担任菲律宾达沃市市长和菲总统期间发起大规模打击毒品犯罪行动。2018年2月，国际刑事法院通知菲律宾政府，将对杜特尔特领导的打击毒品犯罪行动是否有违反人权的情况展开“初步调查”。菲律宾2019年正式退出国际刑事法院。2025年3月11日，杜特尔特在马尼拉国际机场被警方逮捕并被送至国际刑事法院受审。2026年2月23日，国际刑事法院举行了为期4天的指控确认听证会。(总台记者 黄铮铮 刘婵娟)
