Marcos: Duterte testimony in House to be 'taken in' govt probe  President Ferdinand Marcos Jr. on Nov. 14, 2024 says that all the testimonies made by former president Rodrigo Duterte 'will be taken in' the government's investigation into the extrajudicial killings during his administration's drug war. The president told reporters during a chance interview in Tagaytay City that the Philippines' stance would not cooperate with the International Criminal Court (ICC) despite Duterte’s challenge for the ICC to investigate him.  Marcos, however, said that the Philippines would fulfill its obligations with the International Criminal Police Organization (Interpol) if it issues a Red Notice against Duterte.

00:09But, you know, all of the testimony that was given yesterday really will be taken in and will be assessed

00:22to see what, in legal terms, what is the real meaning and consequence of some of the statements made by PRRD.

00:34Now, if that will result in a case being filed here in the Philippines, we will just have to see.

00:39The DOJ will have to make that assessment.

00:42Have you made instructions to the DOJ or to the PNP to...

00:45I'm sorry?

00:46Have you made express instructions to the DOJ or to the PNP to conduct these investigations?

00:51Well, we are always monitoring all of these things because the question of EJK has not yet been answered.

01:00Who has been, who is responsible?

01:03We had some of the mothers of some of the victims that were there, and up to now, they have not seen the justice for the murders of their children.

01:16And that's still, so that is the DOJ's responsibility to continue to examine all bits of comments, of statements, of testimony,

01:29and eventually of evidence to see if that justifies a case to be filed.
