Les Philippines pourraient livrer des suspects à la cour internationale, selon le ministère de la Justice

Le ministère philippin de la Justice a déclaré le 13 mai que la législation locale autorise le gouvernement à remettre des suspects à des tribunaux internationaux tels que la CPI. Cette déclaration fait suite à l'émission d'un mandat d'arrêt contre le sénateur Ronald dela Rosa.

Le ministère de la Justice a apporté cette précision après que la Cour pénale internationale a levé le scellé sur un mandat d'arrêt visant le sénateur Ronald 'Bato' dela Rosa. Le porte-parole du ministère, le procureur Rafael Martinez, a indiqué aux journalistes que la loi Republic Act No. 9851 permet aux autorités de livrer une personne à une cour internationale.

M. Martinez a cité directement la loi : « En vertu de la [Republic Act No.] 9851, nous pouvons livrer une personne suspectée ou arrêtée aux Philippines à la cour ou au tribunal international compétent. L'autre mode est l'extradition. » Le Bureau national d'investigation a tenté de signifier le mandat le 11 mai, sans succès.

Dela Rosa demeure dans l'enceinte du Sénat. L'affaire concerne des crimes contre l'humanité présumés liés à la guerre contre la drogue qu'il a supervisée en tant qu'ancien chef de la police nationale philippine.
