Former presidential spokesperson Harry Roque confirmed that former President Rodrigo Duterte was taken to the clinic inside the International Criminal Court (ICC) detention facility in The Hague. Duterte, who is currently in ICC custody over alleged crimes against humanity, was reportedly given a medical check-up, with his medications already delivered to him.
Roque, a member of Duterte’s legal team, emphasized that his client remains in stable condition despite concerns over his health. He also stated that efforts are ongoing to secure official recognition for himself and former Executive Secretary Salvador Medialdea as part of Duterte’s defense team.
Meanwhile, supporters of Duterte have planned a gathering in The Hague on March 23, with another event scheduled for March 28, coinciding with the former president’s birthday. The events aim to show solidarity with Duterte as he faces trial before the ICC.
This latest development continues to draw attention from both local and international communities, with many closely watching how the case unfolds.
