flag ICC rejects Duterte's request to recuse judges from human rights case, upholding its jurisdiction.

flag The International Criminal Court (ICC) has denied a request by former Philippine President Rodrigo Duterte's legal team to recuse two judges from his case. flag This decision follows a challenge to the court's jurisdiction over Duterte's actions during his presidency, including the drug war and alleged human rights abuses. flag The ICC also rejected a previous challenge to its jurisdiction from Duterte's team. flag If the case proceeds, victims would have no recourse if Duterte returns to the Philippines, as the country left the ICC in 2019.
