Duterte, who has 元気づけるd many of the deaths but 否定するd 容赦するing extrajudicial 殺人,大当りs of 麻薬 嫌疑者,容疑者/疑うs, is constitutionally 禁じるd from running for another 称する,呼ぶ/期間/用語 as 大統領,/社長 in 選挙s next year. But he has 発表するd he will run as 副/悪徳行為 大統領,/社長 instead in a 作戦行動 critics have said is an 試みる/企てる to both 持続する 力/強力にする and 絶縁する himself from the ICC 調査, which has been 推定する/予想するd.
国際アムネスティ's 長官 General Agnes Callamard said the ICC's 告示 comes at a "pivotal time" and that "human 権利s should be at the 中心 of discussions when the Philippines chooses its next leaders."
"No one is above the 法律," she said in a 声明. "Duterte´s 政府 must すぐに end the cycle of 殺人,大当りs, 除去する those 伴う/関わるd from the 階級s of the police and bring all those 嫌疑者,容疑者/疑うd of 犯罪の 責任/義務 to 裁判,公判."
Duterte's 長,指導者 合法的な counsel, Salvador Panelo, 申し立てられた/疑わしい that the Netherlands-based international 法廷,裁判所 was "存在 利用するd as a political and 宣伝 apparatus" by Duterte's political 対抗者s.
"While we 推定する/予想する that more theatrics will be 雇うd by the detractors of the 大統領,/社長 as 選挙 season draws 近づく, this 露骨な/あからさまの and brazen 干渉,妨害 and 強襲,強姦 on our 主権,独立 as an 独立した・無所属 country by the ICC is condemnable," he said in a written 声明.
In her 57-page request, a 部分的に/不公平に redacted 見解/翻訳/版 of which the 法廷,裁判所 解放(する)d to the public, Bensouda argued that Duterte's 積極的な approach and bellicose rhetoric toward 麻薬 traffickers had already taken 形態/調整 when he served as 市長 of Davao City, before he was elected presiden t in 2016.
"Throughout his 任期 as 市長, a central 軍隊 of his 成果/努力s was fighting 罪,犯罪 and 麻薬 use, 収入 him the 愛称s `The Punisher´ and `Duterte Harry´ for the violent manner in which he sought to 戦闘 罪,犯罪," Bensouda wrote.
"On 多重の occasions, Duterte 公然と supported and encouraged the 殺人,大当り of petty 犯罪のs and 麻薬 売買業者s in Davao City."
She 解任するd the 論争 by Philippine 当局 that deaths in the war on 麻薬s resulted from police 事実上の/代理 in self 弁護, 公式文書,認めるing that "声明s by some public 公式の/役人s 示唆する that they considered the 殺人,大当りs an 業績/成就 and an integral 構成要素" of the (選挙などの)運動をする, and that they were encouraged by Duterte as 大統領,/社長.
"Duterte 賞賛するd the 増加するing number of police 殺人,大当りs as proof of the "success" of his "war on 麻薬s," she argued, 追加するing that Duterte made public 声明s encouraging 安全 軍隊s to kill 麻薬 嫌疑者,容疑者/疑うs, 関わりなく the level of 脅し.
The 調査 will look at 殺人,大当りs that took place during some of the time Duterte was 市長, and during his time as 大統領,/社長 between July 1, 2016 and March 16, 2019, the date the Philippines withdrew from the 法廷,裁判所.
Panelo, the 大統領の 合法的な counsel, argued that if the 法廷,裁判所 手配中の,お尋ね者 to 調査/捜査する it should have done so while the Philippines was a member of the ICC, and that now it has no 裁判権.
Last year, the 法廷,裁判所 decided not to 追求する an 調査 into 罪,犯罪s 恐らく committed by 中国 against Uyghur and other 少数,小数派s there, 説 it did not have 裁判権 over 非,不,無-members. The 部隊d 明言する/公表するs and Russia are other 著名な 非,不,無-members of the ICC.
But Carlos Conde, 上級の Philippine 研究員 for Human 権利s Watch, said by 焦点(を合わせる)ing on the years that the country was still a member of the 法廷,裁判所, the ICC is 井戸/弁護士席 within its 権利s to 調査/捜査する Duterte's 活動/戦闘s.
He told reporters in Manila that Duterte's run for 副/悪徳行為 大統領,/社長 does "not in any way afford him 免疫 from 控訴 or 調査 by the ICC."
"He will of course try everything in his 力/強力にする to 失望させる the ICC from doing its 職業 and its 委任統治(領)," Conde said.
