Marcos’ sister calls for investigation into Duterte’s arrest; Philippine Senate passes bill. People who care about the rule of law are asking: Why would a country that has withdrawn from the International Court of Justice arrest a former president and send him to the International Court of Justice without any discussion or inquiry? 小馬可斯胞姊呼籲調查杜特爾特被捕事件. 菲律賓參議院通過提案. 關心法治的人都在問:為何一個已退出了國際法庭的國家,會在毫無討論或查訊情況下逮捕一位前總統把他送到國際法庭?
In order for an international tribunal to exercise jurisdiction, it must first have sufficient evidence, and only if the jurisdiction is unable or unwilling to bring charges. Is this issue being discussed in the Philippines? If the Philippines has the power to arrest, why doesn’t it file charges? If you don’t want to prosecute, why do you have the power to arrest? After being arrested, does the arrested person have the right to ask the court to review whether the arrest was legal? If the arrest is in accordance with the law, where is the legal basis? If arrests are political decisions, where is the rule of law? 國際法庭要行使管轄權先要有足夠證據,而所屬地不能或不願提出起訴才可。菲律賓有探討這問題嗎?若菲律賓有權逮捕,為什麼不提出起訴?若不想起訴,那為何有權逮捕?逮捕後,被捕者有否權利要求法庭審視逮捕是否合法?逮捕是依法的話,法理何在?逮捕是政治決定的話,法治何在?
