00:00The answer to those who are behind his seven-year conspiracy

00:05is one of the things that former Senator Laila de Lima noticed.

00:11She also said that in the exclusive interview of GMA Integrated News,

00:15she is ready to take part in the investigation of the International Criminal Court

00:19and help the victims of the Duterte drug war.

00:24Sandra Aguinaldo is on the case.

00:26I feel so at peace, and I feel, you know, I can breathe freely now.

00:41Seven years have passed.

00:43Former Senator Laila de Lima woke up not remembering drug cases.

00:48But she still has a lot to do.

00:51One day during her studies with her lawyer,

00:54she will find out how the former President Rodrigo Duterte,

00:58former Justice Secretary Vitaliano Aguirre,

01:01and other people behind the cases that she led for more than seven years.

01:06Those who operated on me, because they operated on me,

01:11and they forced the Bilibid witnesses to invent stories about my involvement in illegal drug trading inside via Bilibid.

01:29Arrest me now if that's what you really want. Arrest me now.

01:36In 2017, De Lima was arrested for allegedly colluding with drug lords in Bilibid

01:44in a drug deal when she was the Secretary of Justice.

01:48All three cases that were filed against her are now dismissed.

01:53After her experience, De Lima said that she will help the victims of the bloody war against drugs led by Duterte,

02:03where thousands were killed.

02:05And if she will be called by the International Criminal Court or ICC,

02:09she is ready to testify about Duterte's drug war.

02:14If the Office of the Prosecutor would deem it proper and necessary for me to testify on whatever aspect that can help me, then why not?

02:28What they did was really wrong.

02:31The summary killings are summary killings.

02:34It's a crime. Under penal laws, it's a crime against God.

02:39They used a shortcut, instant justice, which is still murder.

02:46It's a crime. It is wrong.

02:48It's a violation of the right to life, which is the most basic human right.

02:57Do you want to see former President Duterte in prison?

03:01That's the only way for him to be punished, to be prosecuted and to be put in prison.

03:08De Lima called on the Marcos administration to reconsider its position that it cannot assist the ICC in its investigation of the Duterte drug war.

03:17De Lima said that as a lawyer, assisting the ICC is not giving up on the sovereignty of the country.

03:25So you're not really surrendering in the fundamental sense of the word, the sovereignty of the Philippines.

03:35You have an obligation as a state party.

03:40Of course, there are things that our justice system is lacking.

03:43The only ones who can be answered, at least in those limited number of cases, are the low-level perpetrators, the trigger men, but not the mastermind.

03:54No one will investigate Mr. Duterte and now-Senator Bato de la Rosa.

04:01And that is the focus of the ICC.

04:04De Lima admitted that his image was affected by the accusations against him.

04:10That's why he said he will also try to make his presence heard by the public.

04:15For example, he made a video to show that he was partying in a New Belived prison.

04:21And he had a connection to some drug lords who were imprisoned.

04:25All of that was an invention.

04:28Those things never happened.

04:30Those are lies to destroy my womanhood and my humanity.

04:37The former senator and justice secretary also had a connection to his former bodyguard, Ronnie Dayan.

04:44He admitted that he had a relationship with him.

04:47De Lima became a co-accused in drug cases and was also acquitted.

04:53What I can say is that there is no connection between me and Ronnie Dayan in the illegal drug trade.

05:02Because what they released was that I became a vagabond.

05:04He was the one who was giving money.

05:10That's what their stories are like.

05:12None of that is true.

05:14But the findings of the court, they really didn't prove the conspiracy.

05:18I think that became their strategy so that more people would believe that I was involved in drugs

05:24if they released that I was a bad woman.

05:28As of now, he has no plans to run for any position in the 2025 midterm elections.

05:34But he is serving as the spokesperson of the Liberal Party,

05:38the opposition that former President Duterte and President Bongbong Marcos loved.

05:44What are your thoughts on the fact that the LTI is just a small party

05:50and they are saying that there is another opposition now and that is the Duterte camp?

05:55The truth is that we are just a small part of the Liberal Party because we are too denimonized.

06:01You know the culture of politics here, our political system,

06:06which is a bit rotten, actually.

06:09Because after an election, whoever is the ruling party,

06:15whoever is the ruling elite, most of them will be included.

06:22There will be no loyalties.

06:25Those who are claiming to be the opposition,

06:33have we heard them speak about the West Philippine Sea issue?

06:39What is their position on that? They are pro-China.

06:45For GMA Integrated News, Sandra Aguinaldo, for Tutok 24 Hours.

06:51According to former Senator Laila Delima,

06:55GMA Integrated News is still trying to find out the whereabouts of former President Rodrigo Duterte.
