Philippines senators named 'co-perpetrators' in Duterte ICC case
- On February 13 the ICC announced scheduling a four-day confirmation hearing starting Feb. 23 for former president Rodrigo Duterte at The Hague, Netherlands.
- Prosecutors allege a `common plan` to `neutralize` alleged criminals, with a chain‑of‑command involving police handlers and co‑perpetrators reporting to Duterte, as per the ICC document.
- The charges comprise three counts covering 49 incidents and 78 victims, with Count 1 , Count 2 , and Count 3 linked to Oplan TokHang.
- The chamber approved participation of 500 additional victims after the Victims Participation and Reparations Section assessment, while rejecting Nicholas Kaufman's appeals and disqualification requests against Joel Butuyan and Gilbert Andres.
- Following Duterte's March 2025 arrest, two sitting senators have been named as alleged co‑perpetrators, and Dela Rosa has not been seen publicly after reports of an ICC warrant.
