The Appeals Chamber of the International Criminal Court is asking the prosecution and the victims’ lawyers to further explain their positions on the issue of jurisdiction in the crimes against humanity case against former President Rodrigo Duterte. The ICC appeals chamber is seeking further legal submission from all parties on whether the ICC has jurisdiction to prosecute detained former Philippine president Rodrigo Duterte.
The Appeals Chamber of the International Criminal Court has asked prosecutors and lawyers representing victims to further clarify their positions on jurisdiction in the crimes against humanity case against former Philippine President Rodrigo Duterte. In an order dated December 16, the ICC directed the deputy prosecutor and the Office of Public Counsel for the Victims to submit additional observations by January 16, focusing on jurisdictional questions raised by Duterte’s legal team. The move signals continued legal scrutiny as the court weighs whether it has authority to proceed with the case.
