MANILA, Philippines – For many critics of Rodrigo Duterte, it’s a moment of reckoning.

The former Philippine president is detained at the International Criminal Court (ICC) in The Hague, Netherlands, after being arrested in March 2025. He is accused of crimes against humanity in relation to his bloody war on drugs as mayor of Davao City and, later on, as president of the country.

The nationwide drug war killed around 30,000 people, according to estimates from human rights groups.
