Marcoleta sponsors resolution vs extraordinary rendition | ABS-CBN News

Sen. Rodante Marcoleta on Tuesday sponsored Senate Resolution 307, which seeks to “protect all Filipinos against extraordinary rendition and guarantee them a reasonable time prior to their surrender by or extradition from the Philippines to seek redress from the courts and avail of legal remedies.” This, after the Philippine government allowed the arrest and surrender of ex-president Rodrigo Duterte to the International Criminal Court to face charges of crimes against humanity. Marcoleta noted the threat of arrest is also looming against several senators after ICC prosecutors identified Senators Bong Go and Bato dela Rosa as Duterte’s “co-perpetrators.” “Ang tunay na tanong dito ay simple pero mahalaga - may karapatan ba ang bawat Pilipino sa sapat na panahon para ipagtanggol ang sarili sa hukuman? Because once surrender is executed, the opportunity for meaningful judicial intervention may become illusory,” Marcoleta said. “Courts cannot protect rights retroactively after the person is already beyond reach. Ang hinihingi lang naman natin, Mr. President, ay makatarungan at makatuwiran na sapat na panahon upang makalapit sa hukuman at mabigyan ng pagkakataon na ipagtanggol ang sarili.” “This is not obstruction, this is not delay for delay’s sake. This is the minimum requirement for constitutional fairness.” For more ABS-CBN News videos, click the link below:    • ABS-CBN News   For more Breaking News & Live Coverage videos, click the link below:    • Breaking News & Live Coverage   For more latest news and analysis from ABS-CBN News videos, click the link below:    • The latest news and analysis from ABS-CBN ...   For more News Digital News Raw Cuts, click the link below:    • News Digital Raw Cuts   Subscribe to the ABS-CBN News channel! - http://bit.ly/TheABSCBNNews Watch full episodes on iWant for FREE here: http://iwanttfc.com Visit our website at http://news.abs-cbn.com Facebook:   / abscbnnews   Twitter:   / abscbnnews   Instagram:   / abscbnnews   #NewsHighlights #ABSCBNNews #LatestNews
