manila, philippines - Arrest of former President Rodrigo Duterte in Manila sparks joy and controversy amid ICC accusations. Human rights groups react.

Former President Arrested

Rodrigo Duterte, former Filipino president, was arrested in Manila following an ICC arrest warrant.

Chaotic Scene at the Airport

Duterte, 79, was detained upon his return from Hong Kong, where he campaigned for a Senate seat.

ICC Accusations

The arrest comes amid allegations of crimes against humanity during Duterte's anti-drug campaign, leading to thousands of deaths.

International Tribunal Involvement

Duterte questions the legitimacy of the ICC order, marking the first time a former head of state is held by an international tribunal.

Human Rights Concerns

Independent observers estimate a higher death toll than reported, emphasizing the impact on marginalized communities.

Legal Implications

The Philippines' withdrawal from the ICC does not absolve crimes committed during its membership period.

Possible Extradition

The current government hints at extraditing Duterte to the court, despite his denial of wrongdoing.

Public Reaction

Supporters and protesters gather as Duterte is taken into custody, expressing mixed emotions over the arrest.
