The ICC currently has custody of Duterte after he was arrested on March 12, and sent to The Hague for crimes against humanity he allegedly committed during his administration’s bloody drug war. The war against drugs left at least 6,000 people dead, and human rights groups reporting at least 20,000 killed.
Duterte initially appeared before the chamber’s hearing on March 14 via video link. /jpv
