00:00This is Philippine Government.
00:07Live from the GMA Network Center, this is 24 Horas.
00:15Within a few hours, the Lulan Airplane was landed in the Netherlands.
00:20It was arrested by the former President Rodrigo Duterte.
00:24This is the outcome of the charges against him in the International Criminal Court or ICC, which arrested him yesterday.
00:32Before 4 p.m. in the Philippines, the aircraft of the former President, which has a tail number of RPC-5219, left Dubai.
00:43But before that, the flight to Dubai was delayed for a few hours.
00:47In the latest update, from his camp, Duterte took a nap while on the flight.
00:57Good evening, Luzon, Visayas and Mindanao.
01:01Because the flight was extended to Dubai,
01:04past 12 p.m. or 1 a.m. of the expected time, the former President Rodrigo Duterte will arrive in the Netherlands.
01:12The flight was delayed for 7 hours, which was supposed to be scheduled at 5 p.m. or 6 p.m.
01:19The former Executive Secretary, Salvador Medialdea, who was arrested for obstruction of justice,
01:27was also with the President.
01:29The tense encounter in the Villamor Air Base before they were allowed to fly is a proof of the actions of Ian Cruz.
01:35After a dark night in the Villamor Air Base,
01:38the leader of the CIDG decided to fly towards The Hague in the Netherlands.
01:43The former President Rodrigo Duterte was arrested to turn over the Interpol
01:48to the International Criminal Court in the case of Crimes Against Humanity of Murder.
01:52But Duterte did not agree with this and his camp.
01:55The former Executive Secretary, Salvador Medialdea, said that the former President is too weak for a long trip.
02:01The former President Rodrigo Duterte is too weak for a long trip.
02:22After 8 p.m., the tension in the Villamor Air Base was higher
02:27where the former President Duterte, his family and his lawyers were arrested.
02:31This is a crime.
02:33This is a crime.
02:35This is a crime.
02:37This is a crime.
02:39This is a crime.
02:41This is a crime.
02:43This is a crime.
02:45This is a crime.
02:47This is a crime against the President.
02:49You can see in the video that a man holding a gun
02:53is holding Duterte and Tila away.
02:55This is not the reaction I expected from you.
02:59This is a family matter.
03:01The former President is with them.
03:03The former President is on his way to the airplane and is waiting.
03:06But Duterte is waiting for his son, Vice President Sara Duterte.
03:10Don't rush.
03:12We are talking here.
03:14You said this is a luxury.
03:16I am not waiting for my son.
03:18No, he is.
03:20I am.
03:22I am not.
03:24My son is going here.
03:27Sir, he will not arrive today.
03:29If that is the case, make it clear that he will not arrive.
03:34Yes, sir. He will not arrive.
03:36You.
03:38Yes, sir. Upon my order, sir.
03:40You are not letting him in.
03:42Yes, sir. Upon my order, sir.
03:44My lawyer said that my son is a woman.
03:49They can visit you at your detention center, sir.
03:52The scene became more tense when Tore arrested
03:55the former Executive Secretary Salvador Medialdea
03:59because he was trying to stop Duterte's arrest.
04:02What did I do to you?
04:04Let me stand here.
04:06Sir.
04:08Let me go.
04:10Let me go.
04:12Let me go.
04:14You have the right to remain silent.
04:16Everything you say can and will be used against you in the court of law.
04:19You have the right for an attorney.
04:21If you cannot afford an attorney, an attorney will be afforded to you.
04:23Do you understand this right?
04:25You are under arrest for obstruction of justice 1829, sir.
04:28Let's go.
04:30Posas, please.
04:32Posas.
04:34In the end, VP Sara Duterte was not able to enter and remained outside the gate of Villamor.
04:39Duterte was forced to accompany but not with his partner,
04:44Hannelette Avancena, and his daughter, Kitty.
04:46At 9 p.m., a PNP coaster approached a private jet at Villamor Air Base.
04:52Duterte was arrested in this jet.
04:57Police Major General Nicolas Tore and Brigadier General Gene Fajardo were also watched.
05:03Can you talk to my husband for a while?
05:06I will talk to him later.
05:08Despite his arrest, Medialdea was still with the President's airplane.
05:13In one picture, you can see Duterte and Medialdea facing each other in a seat inside the Gulfstream 550 private jet.
05:25According to another Duterte's lawyer, Attorney Martin Delgra,
05:30the President is also accompanied by a nurse and a personal assistant.
05:33There are several pictures taken outside the airplane showing the former President.
05:38But even at 9 p.m., the former President was inside the airplane.
05:42At 11 p.m., the private jet departed from Villamor Air Base.
05:48In the flight path, in the flight radar app,
05:52you can see that the airplane of President Duterte from Manila to Dubai, United Arab Emirates,
05:58took an hour and a minute before landing for a layover.
06:03And from Dubai, the airplane will head to a particular part of Europe,
06:10here in Rotterdam, near The Hague, in the Netherlands, where the ICC is located.
06:16After 8 a.m. Manila time, the airplane arrived in Dubai for a layover.
06:22In Kitty's Instagram post, she talked to her father when he landed in Dubai.
06:27There are also pictures posted on Facebook by Senator Bong Go, the former President, while in Dubai.
06:33At 4 p.m. Philippine time, President Duterte flew to Rotterdam, The Hague Airport.
06:40Early in the morning, Manila time, or past 5 p.m. in the Netherlands,
06:44they are expected to land there.
06:47For GMA Integrated News, Ian Cruz, Katutok, 24 Hours.
06:52The Supreme Court did not grant the request of the former President Rodrigo Duterte and Senator Bato de la Rosa
06:59that the government is not allowed to assist the International Criminal Court at Interpol.
07:06Duterte's children asked the Supreme Court to order them to return to the Philippines
07:12and face the former President, Katutok Cisalima Refran.
07:20Before former President Rodrigo Duterte could fly to The Hague, Netherlands,
07:24to face the International Criminal Court,
07:27he and Senator Bato de la Rosa pursued a petition
07:31before the office of the Supreme Court closed yesterday.
07:34They asked for a Temporary Restraining Order, or TRO,
07:37that prohibits the follow-up, coordination, and cooperation between the ICC and Interpol.
07:44But just a while ago, the court's decision came out after the virtual deliberation of the magistrates.
07:49According to the court, the petitioners protested that there is clear evidence
07:53and that there is no objection to the right or need for the TRO to be released immediately.
07:58But the respondents were given up to 10 days to comment.
08:02This is also separate from the Supreme Court's decision today
08:06that Duterte's children, Mayor Baste and Kitty Duterte, were arrested.
08:10They feel that the Philippine government's order is to return and face the former President Rodrigo Duterte.
08:16They are against the separate petition for habeas corpus
08:20since the Philippines has long abandoned the Rome Statute.
08:23The arrest and detainment of the former President Duterte cannot be justified
08:29by the ICC Warrant of Arrest because the ICC has no jurisdiction in our country.
08:34That is why the arrest of the former President was against the law.
08:38They took the President by force.
08:41They shot him in the airplane.
08:44They fought against his religion.
08:46They are not one country.
08:49In the separate petition filed by Mayor Duterte yesterday,
08:53he denied the rights of the former President
08:56as well as the principle of due process and sovereign authority of the judicial system of the Philippines.
09:02Respondents to both petitions were the Executive Secretary,
09:05Justice Secretary, PNP Chief and CIDG Director.
09:08There were also additional respondents to Mayor Duterte's petition.
09:12We continue to get panic from the respondents.
09:15The Supreme Court immediately held a special raffle for the petitions
09:19and assigned it to a member in charge to start the discussion and deliberation.
09:26Although the Justice Department has already condemned the following legal procedures for the arrest
09:31as well as the protocols to ensure due process and protection of Duterte's rights.
09:36Another lawyer of the former President himself said that
09:40the petitions for habeas corpus of Duterte's children will not be approved.
09:45I think that the petition for habeas corpus is not workable anymore
09:50because it was already there.
09:52The petition for habeas corpus went with each prayer for a temporary restraining order
09:59so that they can stop the arrest of the former President Duterte.
10:03But they did not wait for it.
10:05According to a legal expert, the court can also consider the petitions as moot or invalid.
10:12If it should be stopped, what else can we stop?
10:15I mean, that's the simple way to look at the mootness of that.
10:19Even so, this is a chance for the court to clarify some questions about the ICC
10:25and for the Philippines to have a say here even if it is not a member.
10:28There are matters that are to be resolved.
10:31We cannot just leave questions unanswered by the Supreme Court or our law.
10:38For GMA Integrated News, Salima Nafra, Tutok 24 Horas.
10:44The former President Rodrigo Duterte will be directed to a detention facility.
10:50It's time for him to be turned over to the ICC in Nahig.
10:54It's time for him to be turned over to the ICC in Nahig.
10:58It's time for him to be turned over to the ICC in Nahig.
11:07More than 24 hours after he was arrested,
11:10he was taken on a plane and was flown out of the country.
11:14The former President Rodrigo Duterte is still on his way to Nahig in the Netherlands.
11:18Earlier this morning at 8am PH,
11:21the Gulfstream G550 Jet stopped over in Dubai to refuel.
11:26But before 4pm PH, the plane was flying to Rotterdam in Nahig Airport.
11:32According to a source,
11:34the family of the former President of the Philippine Embassy in the Netherlands
11:37asked him to come to Nahig.
11:39But the ICC did not agree because of security issues.
11:42Based on the protocol,
11:43the former President will be turned over by the CIDG to the ICC.
11:49From the airport, he will be taken to the ICC detention facility
11:53in the Chevening and Section of the Hague Penitentiary Institution in Nahig.
11:56The high wall of the penitentiary is complete with a barbed wire,
12:00electric fence, and three CCTV cameras.
12:02Inside the facility, there is another wall that looks like a castle.
12:07Based on the website of the ICC,
12:09the detention center is complete with facilities.
12:11The detainee has his own cell.
12:13The cell has its own CR, table, bed, television, and intercom.
12:18The detainee also has access to the gym, sports facilities, kitchen, and computer.
12:23Based on the protocol,
12:25the former President will undergo a booking procedure in the cell.
12:28The former Liberian President Charles Taylor,
12:30who was also accused of crimes against humanity and war crimes,
12:33was also assigned to the facility.
12:35The son of the President, Vice President Sara Duterte,
12:38is currently traveling to the Hague.
12:40In the Panayon ng Balitang Hali by Atty. Salvador Panelo,
12:43he told the Vice President
12:45to get a bodyguard from the former President in the ICC.
12:49If the accused is already in the custody of the ICC,
12:52the Pre-Trial Chamber 1 will schedule a hearing for the first time.
12:56The accused who is already in their custody will be accused in the case.
13:00The hearing for the confirmation of charges is expected to last for a week.
13:04If there is a sufficient basis for it to stand as a case,
13:07if Duterte's case will continue,
13:10it is possible that he will be the first Asian-headed state to be prosecuted by the ICC.
13:14According to the International Criminal Court,
13:16Assistant to Counsel Atty. Cristina Conti,
13:18the fastest prosecution in a case of crimes against humanity is 2 years,
13:22and can last up to 8 years.
13:25For GMA Integrated News,
13:27Raffy Tima,
13:2924 Hours.
13:31The Vice President Sara Duterte is on her way to the Netherlands.
13:33After meeting the former President Rodrigo Duterte last night.
13:38The congressman has a travel clearance to the Netherlands.
13:41Paolo Duterte is in front of the camera.
13:43Marisol Abdurrahman is in the spotlight.
13:49No matter what we talked about,
13:51Vice President Sara Duterte did not let me in.
13:54She went straight to the Villamor Air Base
13:56when she arrived from Hong Kong last night.
13:58That's what I don't know
14:00because they didn't let me in
14:03here at the Air Base.
14:05I talked to the former President Rodrigo Duterte
14:10if I could personally talk to him
14:13so that I can give him instructions
14:17and he can also give instructions to me.
14:20And he said here,
14:23we were here earlier,
14:25more than 30 minutes already,
14:28that General Marville is in charge
14:30of the entire Villamor Military Air Base.
14:34She stayed outside the Air Base
14:36with her family's supporters
14:39who gathered there last night.
14:45It was not easy for Vice President Duterte.
14:48Aside from protesting,
14:50she called state kidnapping the arrest of her father.
14:52It's sad.
14:54It's sad because
14:56where can you find a country
14:57where a citizen
15:01will be given to a foreigner.
15:05It's embarrassing as a Filipino.
15:08We talked earlier
15:10but the signal inside was choppy
15:13because the signal was jammed.
15:15She said that we can't do anything.
15:18The way I say it,
15:20that's life.
15:22But then I told him
15:24some instructions
15:27on what to say
15:29and what to do.
15:31But to be honest,
15:33he shouldn't have left the country.
15:36V.P. Sara's gate
15:38has been blocked
15:40by arrests and travel to other countries.
15:42I can't do anything
15:44that our former president left us
15:47not because he's my father
15:50but because
15:53I can't accept
15:55that
15:57we're being
15:59doormat
16:01by foreigners.
16:03It's very personal.
16:05As you can see,
16:07they filed an impeachment
16:09and their basis is hearsay
16:11and gossip.
16:13Black voting is very strong now.
16:16Black voting of
16:18nine candidates
16:20of PDP-Laban
16:22is getting stronger
16:24and snowballing.
16:25V.P. was also surprised
16:27that a political asylum in China
16:29was requested by her father.
16:31I was there
16:33in Hong Kong.
16:35He didn't speak
16:37from the Chinese government.
16:39And in fact,
16:41he said,
16:43if you remember,
16:45his flight was at 4 p.m.
16:47He said,
16:49let's wake up at 7 a.m.
16:51so that I can go back
16:53to the Philippines.
16:55He was
16:57willingly surrendering himself
16:59to the jurisdiction of
17:01Philippine authorities,
17:03not the ICC.
17:05Since he didn't see
17:07and only talked to his busy father,
17:09he decided to follow him
17:11to The Hague, Netherlands.
17:13There are arrangements
17:15because I need to talk
17:17to the lawyers
17:19wherever they take him.
17:21I will go
17:23and the lawyers will go
17:25and we will talk
17:27about what to do.
17:29Earlier this morning,
17:31he traveled to the Netherlands.
17:33The visa layover is in Dubai
17:35and he is expected to arrive
17:37in Amsterdam tomorrow.
17:39His brother,
17:41Congressman Paulo Duterte,
17:43said that he also moved
17:45to visit his father.
17:47Earlier, his travel clearance
17:49to the Netherlands
17:51and Japan was released by the camera.
17:53For GMA Integrated News,
17:55President Bongbong Marcos
17:57was removed from his position
17:59of filing a complaint
18:01to former President Rodrigo Duterte
18:03in the International Criminal Court.
18:05The government did not help the ICC
18:07and only followed
18:09its obligations in the Interpol.
18:11Ivan Mayrina was on the scene.
18:17After a few minutes,
18:19the airplane of former President
18:21Rodrigo Duterte took off last night.
18:23President Bongbong Marcos
18:25arrived in Malaysia
18:27at 11.03 pm
18:29when Duterte took off.
18:31It was more than 12 hours
18:33after he arrived in Nha Trang
18:35after departing from Hong Kong.
18:49March 7 was the date
18:51when the International Criminal Court
18:53or ICC issued a warrant
18:55at 3 am yesterday
18:57for him to receive a copy
18:59from Interior and Local Government
19:01Secretary John Vicremulia.
19:03That's when they agreed
19:05to serve the warrant
19:07even after a week of waiting.
19:09Marcos agreed to the process
19:11and granted the right
19:13of the former president to file a warrant.
19:26I'm confident that
19:28if in further examination,
19:30you will find that
19:32it is proper and correct.
19:35The President also clarified
19:37that Duterte's arrest
19:39was due to the obligation of the Philippines
19:41to the International Police or Interpol
19:43and his previous statements like this.
19:55I do not consider it
19:57as a threat to our sovereignty.
20:00He did not change
20:02because...
20:04We are consistent.
20:06We do not help in the investigation of the ICC.
20:08The arrest,
20:10what we did,
20:12the arrest that we did today
20:14was in compliance
20:16with our commitments to Interpol.
20:18It just so happened
20:20that that came from ICC.
20:23But it's not because
20:25of me.
20:27It's because it came from Interpol.
20:29He mentioned that we need to help
20:31because we are also helping Interpol
20:33like the arrest of Alice Goh
20:35and Arnie Tevez abroad
20:37and the rescue of some of our countrymen.
20:39Even the human trafficking
20:41in Myanmar
20:43and the many...
20:45In a separate statement and interview,
20:47Vice President Sara Duterte said
20:49that this is one of the persecution
20:51of the administration
20:52of the GMA integrations.
20:54Meanwhile,
20:56the President sent a message
20:58to the supporters of former President Duterte
21:00calling for people power.
21:02Politics doesn't enter into it.
21:04Why?
21:06He's never going to be a candidate
21:08for anything.
21:10Why go after him?
21:12Right?
21:14And this is 2017,
21:16I'm not even there yet.
21:18I was a civilian back then.
21:20According to Palacio,
21:22it's not enough
21:24to arrest the former President
21:26Rodrigo Duterte
21:28for the alleged
21:30extrajudicial killings
21:32of his drug war.
21:34They can't accept
21:36that Duterte
21:38is the first victim
21:40of his arrest.
21:42And Tina Pangnibon Perez was arrested.
21:45Duterte,
21:47punish him!
21:49Imprison him!
21:50Imprison him!
21:52Imprison him!
21:54Imprison him!
21:56Tina still doesn't want
21:58the perpetrators
22:00of the extrajudicial killings
22:02in the Duterte drug war
22:04to be arrested
22:06for the alleged crimes
22:08against humanity.
22:10Duterte is waiting
22:12for Michael Lee's widow
22:14who was killed in March 20, 2017.
22:16I want to hug my children
22:18because I remember
22:20what I went through.
22:22When they say that he is the victim,
22:24we get angry
22:26because we are the ones
22:28who experienced
22:30the real violence.
22:32Until he is jailed,
22:34we will not stop.
22:36Due to the lack of due process,
22:38for their children,
22:40Llore Pasco and Emily Soriano
22:42mentioned that
22:44the child is only 15 years old.
22:46I am not happy
22:48that Duterte
22:50is the only one to be held accountable.
22:52Duterte should be held
22:54accountable for everything.
22:56It's a good thing that Duterte
22:58has due process.
23:00My children who were raped
23:02do not have due process.
23:04I am crying because
23:06I am happy
23:08that Duterte was arrested.
23:10He is very lucky
23:12because he was given
23:14the right to defend himself.
23:16But for us,
23:18the poor,
23:20the victims,
23:22we were not given
23:24that right.
23:26Many are angry
23:28that they were not taught
23:30how to deal with drugs.
23:32But,
23:34what about us?
23:36What about the innocent victims?
23:38An EJK officer
23:40who looks like Duterte
23:42cannot accept
23:44that Duterte is the victim.
23:46I hope
23:48that the President
23:50and the government
23:52will not give
23:54a good future
23:56to their children
23:58that they left behind.
24:00Whatever hardship
24:02that your children are going through,
24:04we also experienced it.
24:06More than that.
24:08Their lawyers also remind us
24:10that not all of the crimes
