El equipo de Duterte planea desafío ante la ONU a la jurisdicción de la CPI tras fallo de detención

Tras la decisión de la Sala de Apelaciones de la CPI del 6 de marzo que confirmó la detención del expresidente Rodrigo Duterte, su equipo legal filipino, liderado por Salvador Panelo, planea plantear el tema de la jurisdicción del tribunal ante las Naciones Unidas. Panelo sostiene que la CPI carece de autoridad sobre el caso, enfatizando que no es un organismo de la ONU.

Salvador Panelo, exjefe del asesoramiento legal de Duterte, anunció la estrategia en una entrevista con Bilyonaryo News Channel, declarando: «¿Cómo puede (la CPI) condenar (al expresidente Duterte) si no tiene jurisdicción? Por eso planeo llevar el tema ante las Naciones Unidas». Destacó que la CPI no forma parte de la ONU y busca publicitar cualquier posible injusticia derivada de una condena. Panelo también sostuvo que el caso debería ser desestimado por sus méritos, criticando la asunción de jurisdicción por parte de la CPI pese a lo que él considera una falta de la misma. Este desarrollo llega después de que la Sala de Apelaciones de la CPI confirmara por unanimidad la orden del 26 de enero de la Sala de Instrucción I sobre la detención continua de Duterte, rechazando argumentos sobre un informe médico (como se detalla en la cobertura previa). Duterte, enfrentado a cargos por crímenes contra la humanidad que incluyen asesinatos vinculados al escuadrón de la muerte de Davao y su campaña antidrogas, se encuentra en el centro de detención de la CPI desde su arresto en Filipinas en marzo de 2025.
