ICC allows victims of drug war to submit comments on cases READ MORE:
on a government bid to stop its investigation into the anti-crime campaign that took thousands of lives.
The Appeals Chamber said it deems it appropriate to include the victims of the “war on drugs” as it resolves the Philippine government’s appeal. “They have not been able to obtain justice and remedies for the crimes committed against their family members,” it said. In its response, the Philippine government asserted that it is precluded from “scrutinizing the submissions” of other participants. It added that it had not been notified of any filings concerning victim representation.
Solicitor General Menardo Guevarra on Thursday said the ICC should allow the Philippine government to reply to any pleading that may be filed by victims of the war on drugs.
