Sala de primera instancia de la CPI revisará la detención de Duterte

Una sala de primera instancia de la Corte Penal Internacional revisará la detención continuada del expresidente Rodrigo Duterte en La Haya. El tribunal ha solicitado observaciones a la fiscalía, la defensa y los abogados de las víctimas. Este hecho marca la primera revisión de este tipo durante la etapa de juicio en su caso por crímenes de lesa humanidad.

La Sala de Primera Instancia (SPI) III de la Corte Penal Internacional emitió una orden de cuatro páginas con fecha del 1 de mayo de 2026, instruyendo a las partes a presentar observaciones sobre la detención del expresidente Rodrigo Duterte en el complejo penitenciario de Scheveningen o cualquier moción para su libertad provisional.

El tribunal señaló la necesidad de evaluar si las circunstancias de su detención han cambiado. Duterte ha permanecido detenido desde su arresto en marzo del año pasado, acusado de asesinato como crimen de lesa humanidad por su presunto papel en la brutal campaña contra las drogas que resultó en miles de muertes durante operaciones policiales.

En la etapa preliminar, la Sala de Cuestiones Preliminares I dictaminó en enero que ningún cambio en las circunstancias justificaba su libertad provisional, ya que Duterte continuaba representando un riesgo para los testigos y las víctimas. La abogada de derechos humanos Kristina Conti, reconocida por la CPI, declaró al Inquirer que la responsabilidad de la revisión ha pasado de la SCP I a la SPI III.

El asunto podría ser abordado o resuelto en la primera conferencia de estado el 27 de mayo. La SPI III también solicitó que se presenten pruebas documentales, testimonios grabados, medidas de protección de testigos, testigos adicionales y otros materiales previos al juicio antes del 15 de mayo para preparar el juicio propiamente dicho.
