国际刑事法院（ICC）已正式通知菲律宾前总统罗德里戈·杜特尔特，他将于下月出席有关其任内‘反毒战争’期间涉嫌危害人类罪的初步听证会。这一听证会是ICC检察官办公室在2021年重启调查后的重要进展。尽管菲律宾已于2019年退出国际刑院，但法院认为，其对2011年至2019年期间发生的潜在罪行仍具管辖权。杜特尔特自2016年上台后推行铁腕禁毒政策，据人权组织估计，该行动导致超过6,000名疑似毒贩被警方击毙，另有数千人死于身份不明的武装人员之手。联合国及多个国际人权机构多次谴责相关行动涉嫌系统性侵犯人权。杜特尔特本人则始终否认指控，称其行动旨在保护国家免受毒品危害，并强调司法主权应由本国掌握。此次听证会并非正式审判，而是用于评估是否具备足够证据启动正式起诉程序。若ICC最终裁定有合理依据，杜特尔特可能成为首位被国际刑院通缉的亚洲前国家元首。此举也引发关于国际司法与国家主权之间张力的广泛讨论。
The International Criminal Court (ICC) has formally notified former Philippine President Rodrigo Duterte that he will attend a preliminary hearing next month regarding alleged crimes against humanity committed during his administration’s ‘war on drugs.’ This hearing marks a significant step forward following the ICC Prosecutor’s Office’s decision to reopen its investigation in 2021. Although the Philippines withdrew from the ICC in 2019, the court maintains jurisdiction over potential crimes committed between 2011 and 2019.Since taking office in 2016, Duterte implemented a hardline anti-drug campaign. Human rights organizations estimate that over 6,000 suspected drug offenders were killed by police, with thousands more deaths attributed to unidentified armed individuals. The United Nations and numerous international human rights groups have repeatedly condemned these operations as potentially systematic human rights violations. Duterte has consistently denied any wrongdoing, asserting that his actions were necessary to protect the nation from the scourge of drugs and emphasizing that judicial sovereignty belongs to the Philippines alone.This upcoming hearing is not a trial but a procedural step to determine whether sufficient evidence exists to proceed with formal charges. If the ICC ultimately finds reasonable grounds, Duterte could become the first former Asian head of state to be indicted by the court—an outcome that has reignited global debate over the balance between international justice and national sovereignty.
