Pamela “pained” over Duterte’s ICC detention
February 25, 2026
|The Freeman
Cebu Governor Pamela Baricuatro, a staunch ally of former president Rodrigo Duterte, reiterated her strong opposition to his detention and impending trial before the International Criminal Court, saying the former leader should instead be allowed to return home and be with his family.
-
Speaking to reporters on Monday evening, February 23, Baricuatro said it was “painful” to see Duterte facing detention abroad and maintained that he does not deserve to be imprisoned while legal proceedings are ongoing.
Baricuatro made the remarks when asked if she had any message for Duterte amid developments related to the ICC’s investigation into his administration’s anti-drug campaign.
For the governor, Duterte’s years of public service should be considered.
She added that the former chief executive has already served the country and should now be spending time with his loved ones.
