De Lima calls ICC probe on gov ts drug war an extraordinary remedy
Opposition Senator Leila M. de Lima has called the International Criminal Court s (ICC) full-blown investigation of the thousands of killings under the Duterte regime s drug war an extraordinary remedy, which she said is possible in the case of the Philippines where domestic justice system can no longer be expected to provide a genuine solution to end impunity and prevent further acts of injustice.
In a lecture presented by Dean Tony La Viña on De Lima s behalf during the webinar entitled Duterte s Crimes Against Humanity: Rendering Justice Through ICC last June 28, De Lima said the most heinous offenses are the ones that usually go unpunished, especially when it is the very same officials who are in charge of protecting the people that are committing acts of violence against them with impunity.
