ICC prosecutor Mandiaye Niang: 'Reveal the truth, bring justice to all the victims' | ABS-CBN News

Описание: During the first day of the ICC confirmation of charges hearing against former President Rodrigo Duterte, Deputy Prosecutor Mandiaye Niang highlighted murder cases linked to the implementation of the "war on drugs." These include 49 incidents of murder and attempted murder involving 78 victims—including three children—covering the period from 2011 to 2016 for Count 1.

Niang described Duterte as the "very heart" of the operation, citing past statements where the former president called to "neutralize" criminals, including those perceived to be involved in illegal drugs. He added that Duterte’s statements emboldened the Davao Death Squad (DDS), as well as state forces, to carry out the alleged executions.

Niang urged the court to help "reveal the truth of what happened to them and bring a sense of justice to all the victims."
