The Philippine, former commander, Duttri, was arrested based on the international criminal court order for drug killings

The Philippine police arrested former President Rodrigo Dutti after the International Criminal Court issued an order accusing him of crimes against humanity because of his deadly “war of drugs”.

Dotti was arrested by the police at Manila Airport shortly after arriving from Hong Kong.

Watch the DUTERTE anti -drug brutal campaign, which occurred when he was the head of the nation of Southeast Asia from 2016 to 2022, killed thousands of people.

The 79 -year -old had said earlier that he was ready to go to prison, when reports of reports of his potential detention.

The International Human Rights Alliance in the Philippines described the arrest of a “historic moment”.

“The ethical arc of the universe is long, but today, it has bent towards justice.” Dotte’s arrest is the beginning of accountability for mass killings that defined his brutal rule, “said Peter Murphy, Ichrp president.

But former Dotte Spokesman Salvador Pelo criticized the arrest, saying it was “illegal” as the Philippines withdrew from the International Criminal Court.

“War on drugs”

“Hitler is the massacre of three million Jews. Now there are three million drug addicts [in the Philippines]. “I will be happy to slaughter them,” he said.

However, critics said that his “war on drugs” led to the abuse of the police and that many drug suspects were executed with brief procedures. He denied these allegations.

He planted a picture of the man’s difficult and anti -fans man, with his love for the Philippines who elected him as the first president of the country from the southern island of Mindanao.
