Rodrigo Duterte | Rodrigo Duterte's 1st ICC Hearing Over "War On Drugs" Which Killed 6,284

Former Philippine President Rodrigo Duterte was "abducted" before being taken to The Hague to face murder allegations and is too ill to give evidence, his lawyer told International Criminal Court judges at his initial appearance on Friday. Duterte - who arrived in the Netherlands on a flight from Manila on Wednesday after being arrested on an ICC warrant on charges of crimes against humanity - sounded frail as he spoke via video link from a detention unit, confirming his name and date of birth for the court.
