It also said that Duterte's release would "provide him with greater access to his associates and family who are actively attempting to interfere with the proceedings against him, including through [REDACTED]."

The planning for the De Lima assassination took place in the Duterte house while he served the hitmen with sauasages.
“The plan was to assassinate her in Bajada, outside the Davao Insular Hotel. But it did not materialize because the assassin’s view was covered by many trees.”

For all the money they’re paying him, ang style ni Kaufman parang sina topaksio, butiki at gasulito lang naman pala. 🤡
“The judges considered that the proposition of the applicant is incorrect and legally untenable, and has the potential to cause delay,” the document reads.

Remulla said the government will take care of the safety and security needs of the witnesses in the country, but clarified that transporting them to The Hague, Netherlands will not be shouldered by the government.

Because Duterte’s #tokhang victims were poor people in the slums. They were targeted since they have no means to fight back.
Remulla clarified that the government will only spend for the witnesses who will testify, noting that they are people “who don’t really have much in life.”

“I informed her informally through a message that I am here in Australia and I am here to do a rally today. If she is available for a very brief quick chat, because I met her in the Philippines when she visited, I just want to say a ‘friendly hello.’ Nothing official,” she added.

LMAO
The mass murderer’s daughter sending feelers. 🤡
“I did reach out to (Wong). Unfortunately, she is unable to meet me on Monday. So, I will not be visiting Australian government officials for this visit. I do hope that I could meet them on my next visit,” Duterte said.

In response to the Duterte camp’s claim that Duterte “will not continue to commit crimes if released”, the prosecution noted that Duterte previously stated that he planned to run for mayor of Davao City in 2025 and “pledged to ‘double’ the killings the ‘moment I return’.”

“The prosecution added that Duterte and his associates have a history of interfering with investigations against him, citing the example of the cases of intimidation against former senator Leila de Lima and self-confessed hitman Edgar Matobato.”

According to the prosecution, the fact that Duterte was elected as mayor of Davao City, and that his children hold political positions in the country, shows that he, his family and associates “are capable of influencing and harming witnesses”.
Remember that for the ICC case of Rodrigo Duterte, the family is not being impoverished by Nicolas Kaufman’s legal fees of P2,590,960 per month (Eu40,000). They have asked the International Criminal Court to help them cover the legal fees of the Kaufman team’s five lawyers.

4) Duterte’s humanitarian plea, anchored on his senior age…Just before he was arrested last March, Duterte traveled to Hong Kong, went around shopping, and spoke lengthily in front of a rally crowd. #KeepDuterteINJail
3) if Duterte is released, he may commit even more crimes. He boastfully admitted when he testified in the House of Representatives quad committee hearing last November 2024, that if he returns as Davao City mayor, he would “double” drug war killings. #KeepDuterteINJail
2) Victims continue to fear reprisals from the Duterte family, his allies who hold powerful public posts, & his fanatical supporters who are notorious for their propensity for violence. Duterte’s release from detention would directly threaten the security of victims and witnesses.

Duterte is not entitled to interim release:
1) When he was arrested pursuant to an ICC warrant, he threatened the arresting officer (now police chief Gen. Nicolas Torre) that his children would exact revenge against the latter.

and are continuing to speak out today,” Lacanilao said.
No precedent
“To release Duterte is to place them all in the direct path of intimidation and harm,” he added.

“The prosecution’s case is built on the courage of survivors and witnesses—journalists, activists and ordinary citizens with direct testimony of the streets littered with corpses executed in the most violent of manners who have risked everything to speak out from the beginning…”
