Former Philippine President Rodrigo Duterte’s top drug-war enforcer, Senator Ronald dela Rosa, urges President Ferdinand Marcos Jr not to hand him over to the International Criminal Court (ICC). Dela Rosa makes the appeal as he fears he may be arrested and remains in his legislative office for a second day, according to reporting from multiple outlets. He says he has “faithfully served” the country and argues he is ready to face justice within the Philippines rather than be transferred to an international tribunal. The reports describe his efforts to avoid being surrendered to the ICC while he continues to stay indoors, reflecting concerns about his personal safety and legal risk. The outlets agree on the core points: dela Rosa is seeking to influence the president’s decision regarding any potential ICC process, he is preparing to confront legal proceedings in the Philippines, and he is currently not leaving his office due to fears of arrest. The coverage does not provide additional details on the legal basis for any transfer or the status of any ICC-related proceedings.
