Philippines govt defends ex-president's arrest before the Senate

It has been accused of transferring Duterte to the ICC for political reasons
-
MANILA - The Philippines government on March 20, before the country's Senate, defended the arrest and transfer to the International Criminal Court (ICC) of former president Rodrigo Duterte, as it faced allegations he was illegally abducted at the behest of a foreign institution.
Mr Duterte is set to be the first Asian former head of state to go on trial at the ICC after he was arrested last week and sent to The Hague, where he faces accusations of murder as a crime against humanity over a "war on drugs" that killed thousands of people and defined his 2016-2022 presidency.
The government's decision to hand Mr Duterte over triggered a backlash among his supporters, family and allies, who have petitioned the Supreme Court arguing the arrest was illegal and the ICC no longer has jurisdiction in the Philippines.
