00:00Before the virtual confrontation of former President Duterte in the ICC,

00:04the Supreme Court first censured the petitions for a temporary restraining order

00:09or a return to arresting him.

00:12His son, Vice President Sara Duterte, is also in the Netherlands.

00:16Ian Cruz has a report.

00:20At 5 p.m. Philippine time,

00:23Vice President Sara Duterte arrived at the International Criminal Court in The Hague, Netherlands.

00:28He spoke for the first time since his father brought former President Rodrigo Duterte to the ICC.

00:34However, they haven't met yet.

00:58We are here right now trying to access the former President.

01:04Senator Robin Padilla and Attorney Harry Roque are with Vice President Duterte.

01:19Yesterday, Duterte's executive secretary, Salvador Medialdea,

01:24said that he hasn't seen the former President since they arrived in The Hague.

01:28The ICC replied that Duterte is also in their custody.

01:32He was taken to their detention center after all the medical checks.

01:36The ICC spokesman said that standard practice is necessary to protect the health

01:42and well-being of the suspect in their power.

01:45In a letter to the ICC, Duterte said that he considered Medialdea as one of his lawyers in the ICC.

01:52He was also sent by the former President to visit him in the pre-trial chamber.

01:58Duterte also asked for the help of the Office of Public Counsel for the Defense

02:03to visit his registered bodies.

02:06Roque also submitted an application to be part of Duterte's legal team.

02:11With the help of the ICC, Duterte called the Philippine Embassy in The Hague

02:16to help him visit his lawyer and son.

02:20He was brought by the Embassy to the ICC.

02:23Article 60 of the Rome Statute, based on the establishment of the ICC,

02:29states that the suspects have the right to request an interim release.

02:35According to Attorney Joel Butuyan, one of the two Filipinos on the ICC's list of counsel,

02:41there are conditional applications for an interim release.

02:44It is also not easy to obtain.

02:47The burden of proof is on the part of the accused

02:53to convince the judges that you will not fly away.

02:59That is the biggest consideration if he will escape.

03:03Second, is there a risk that he will intimidate, he will antagonize witnesses

03:11and the other parties if he is released?

03:15Third, will he tamper with evidence?

03:19And even though Duterte is already 79 years old,

03:23age or health is not included in the court's consideration.

03:28His health, he will go to the hospital, he will be treated and he will return to prison.

03:33He is old, almost all the people there are his age.

03:38According to the ICC's video explainer,

03:42in the first appearance, Duterte will confirm his identity.

03:46Here, he is only considered a suspect.

03:49After this, it is possible to reach a month before he joins the next step of the process.

03:55So even if he is not allowed to leave,

03:57Duterte's 80th birthday on March 28,

04:01it is possible that he will be hanged inside the ICC.

04:04Here in the Philippines,

04:05the Supreme Court issued a request for a temporary restraining order

04:09for the arrest of the former President,

04:11who was hanged by Duterte's camp and Senator Bato de la Rosa.

04:15They also issued a motion for reconsideration.

04:18They asked the ICC to order the government to do everything to bring Duterte home.
