Duterte's arrest viewed as step toward justice in Philippines

Rodrigo Duterte was arrested on March 11 at Manila's airport under an International Criminal Court warrant for crimes against humanity related to his drug war. His arrest followed due process, according to family members of victims of extrajudicial killings. Randy delos Santos, uncle of a drug war victim, stated that Duterte's rights were respected during his arrest. He contrasted this with the treatment of families affected by the drug war, who often faced violence from authorities. Families of extrajudicial killing victims held Masses to mark what they view as a step toward justice. They expressed hope that Duterte's arrest could help restore the country's justice system.
