Next ICC hearing on Duterte’s drug war probe set for September
The International Criminal Court (ICC) has scheduled the next hearing in its investigation into former President Rodrigo Duterte’s war on drugs for September 23, 2025.
The probe focuses on allegations of crimes against humanity linked to thousands of extrajudicial killings during Duterte’s administration.While government data recorded around 6,000 deaths, human rights groups claim the actual number is higher.
Duterte, who previously opposed the ICC probe, appeared virtually in the initial hearing on March 14, 2025.
