00:00The Supreme Court did not grant the request of former President Rodrigo Duterte and Senator Bato de la Rosa

00:07that the government is not allowed to assist the International Criminal Court at Interpol.

00:14Duterte's children requested the Supreme Court to order them to return to the Philippines

00:20and to confront the former President.

00:23Salima Refran is on trial.

00:26Before former President Rodrigo Duterte was allowed to fly to The Hague, Netherlands

00:33to confront the International Criminal Court,

00:35his camp and Senator Bato de la Rosa filed a petition

00:39before the office of the Supreme Court closed yesterday.

00:42They requested a Temporary Restraining Order or TRO

00:45that prohibits the follow-up, coordination, and assistance to the ICC and Interpol.

00:52But just a while ago, the court issued a decision after the virtual deliberation of the magistrates.

00:58According to the court, the petitioners are confused that there is a clear evidence

01:02and there is no right or need to issue a TRO immediately.

01:07But the respondents were given up to 10 days to comment.

01:11This is separate from the sleep in the Supreme Court today

01:14of his children, Mayor Baste and Duterte.

01:18They feel that the Philippine government should order them to return and confront the former President Rodrigo Duterte.

01:25They are against the separate petition for habeas corpus

01:29since the Philippines has long abandoned the Rome Statute.

01:32The arrest and detention of the former President Duterte cannot be considered as a violation

01:38of the ICC Warrant of Arrest because the ICC has no jurisdiction in our country.

01:43That's why the arrest of the former President is against the law.

01:46They took the President by force.

01:50They shot him in the airplane.

01:53They fought against his religion.

01:55They brought him to another country.

01:58In the separate petition filed by Mayor Duterte yesterday,

02:02he denied the rights of the former President,

02:05as well as the principle of due process and sovereign authority of the judicial system of the Philippines.

02:11Respondents to both petitions were the Executive Secretary,

02:14Justice Secretary, PNP Chief, and CIDG Director.

02:18There were also additional respondents to Mayor Duterte's petition.

02:22We are continuing to get more respondents.

02:25The Supreme Court immediately held a special raffle for the petitions

02:29and assigned it to a member in charge to start the discussion and deliberation.

02:36Although the Justice Department has already condemned the legal procedures in the arrest,

02:41as well as the protocols to ensure due process and protection of Duterte's rights.

02:47Another former President's lawyer himself said that

02:50the petitions for habeas corpus of Duterte's children will not be violated.

02:55I think that the petition for habeas corpus is not workable anymore

03:00because it has already been transferred.

03:02The petition for habeas corpus went with each prayer for a temporary restraining order

03:08so that they can stop the arrest of the former President Duterte.

03:14But nothing, they did not wait.

03:16According to a legal expert, the court may consider the petitions as moot or not valid.

03:23If it should be stopped, what else can we stop?

03:26I mean that's the simple way to look at the mootness of that.

03:30Even so, this is a chance for the court to clarify a few questions about the ICC

03:36and the direction of the Philippines here, even if it is not a member.

03:40There are matters that are to be resolved.

03:43We cannot just leave questions unanswered by the Supreme Court or our law.
