A petition to bar the entry of International Criminal Court (ICC) investigators has been filed before a Samar court.

- DAPHNE GALVEZ

Lawyer Fernando Perito yesterday filed before the Regional Trial Court of Calbayog City a petition to bar the entry of ICC probers who would investigate the reported killings during the Duterte administration's war on drugs.

In the 12-page petition, a preliminary injunction is being sought to prevent ICC investigators and officers from entering the Philippines or having them deported if they were already in the Philippines.

"With all our laws and rules, policies in order, are we to succumb to international pressure to ignore our existing laws, rules and procedures, simply because that international court is so powerful," the petition read.
