Rodrigo Duterte arrested for crimes against humanity in Philippines

Former Philippine President Rodrigo Duterte was served an arrest warrant on March 11 for crimes against humanity related to his drug war. He returned from Hong Kong and is now in custody. The warrant was issued by the International Criminal Court (ICC) and confirmed by Malacañang. Interpol-Manila received the official copy of the warrant early in the day. Duterte will undergo legal proceedings as outlined by the ICC, which includes a hearing to confirm charges and a potential trial in The Hague. The process differs from extradition, focusing on the transfer of suspects to the ICC.
