Philippines LIVE: Rodrigo Duterte, Philippine Ex-President, Is Arrested on I.C.C. Warrant | CNBC TV18
Vice President Sara Duterte left the country on Wednesday morning to fly to Amsterdam, the Netherlands, following the arrest of her father, former President Rodrigo Duterte, the Office of the Vice President (OVP) confirmed.
In a message to reporters, the OVP said that the Vice President departed Manila at approximately 7:40 a.m., via Emirates flight no. EK 337, bound for Amsterdam
The Duterte patriarch was placed under the custody of authorities late Tuesday morning after getting arrested upon arrival in the Philippines from Hong Kong. Before his flight took off, the former President addressed his arrest via an Instagram live of her daughter Veronica “Kitty” Duterte.
Rodrigo Duterte, the former president of the Philippines, was arrested on Tuesday in Manila, after the International Criminal Court issued a warrant accusing him of crimes against humanity in his war on drugs in which, human rights groups say, tens of thousands of Filipinos were summarily executed.
He was taken into custody at the airport in Manila after returning from a trip to Hong Kong, according to the Philippine government.
Mr. Duterte, 79, who left office in 2022, is a populist firebrand who remains one of the Philippines’ most influential politicians, and he has enjoyed relative immunity despite several accusations against him. Only a handful of people have been convicted in connection with the killings.

We stand with former President Rodrigo Roa Duterte as he faces the International Criminal Court (ICC) in The Hague. His unwavering commitment to the safety and security of the Filipino people has always been his greatest priority. The fight against crime and illegal drugs was never about personal gain—it was a battle for the nation’s peace and order.

No foreign court should dictate the fate of a leader who acted in defense of his country. The sovereignty of the Philippines must be upheld, and this case is not just about Duterte, but about the right of every Filipino leader to enforce the laws of our land without external interference.

We remain firm in our belief that President Duterte acted in the best interest of the nation, and we will not waver in our support for his continued fight for justice.

Your job is to protect your citizens, Mr. President.

Duterte is innocent until proven guilty. You should have filed a case against him in the Philippines, instead of handing him over - a presumed innocent citizen - to a foreign entity.
