Duterte leaves for The Hague to face ICC | Manila Times | Former president Rodrigo Duterte on Tuesday night boarded a plane that would take him to The Hague, Netherlands where he would be tried by the International Criminal Court (ICC) for crimes against humanity linked to his war against illegal drugs. A Gulfstream V (GLF 5) jet, bearing tail number RPC5219, left the Philippines and will be making a brief refueling stop in Dubai before proceeding directly [Rotterdam airport] to The Hague. The flight, arranged by Challenger Aero Air Corporation, is being piloted by Captains Johnny Gulla and Elmo Segovia, according to sources privy to the preparations. Duterte's arrest follows the ICC's issuance of a warrant over his administration's controversial war on drugs, a campaign that left thousands dead, many under murky circumstances suspected to be extrajudicial killings.

Philippine President Rodrigo Duterte Invokes the Holocaust to Defend `War on Drugs' | 30 Sept 2016 | Due to his acid tongue and backing of vigilante death squads, Philippine President Rodrigo Duterte is increasingly likened to a dictator. On Friday, he even made the comparison explicit himself, saying, "Hitler massacred 3 million Jews. Now, there are 3 million drug addicts ... I'd be happy to slaughter them," according to GMA News. Duterte had just arrived in Davao City, where he served more than two decades as mayor, and first launched the extrajudicial "drugs war" that is now spiraling across the 100 million-strong Southeast Asian nation. Since his inauguration June 30, police and vigilantes have heaped more than 3,000 bloodied corpses onto the nation's streets, many scrawled with grisly epitaphs like "pusher."
