00:00Congressmen gave the order to pay more attention to the victims of the Umanoy extrajudicial killings during the administration.
00:10At the same time, those who can be prosecuted for the accusations,
00:14the administration has already issued an arrest warrant to former President Rodrigo Duterte.
00:19This is what Mela Lasmora reported.
00:22Some congressmen gave the order to pay more attention to the accusations,
00:27the administration has already issued an arrest warrant to former President Rodrigo Duterte.
00:33According to House Assistant Majority Leader Jill Bongalon,
00:36who is also a lawyer, the government just implemented the arrest warrant
00:40and it went through the right process, so the government should not be blamed for what happened.
00:46According to House Deputy Majority Leader Paulo Ortega and House Assistant Majority Leader Jude Asidre,
00:52it was not the Marcos Administration that filed the case against the ICC,
00:57it was the victims themselves.
00:59It was not the Marcos Administration who said to hurry up,
01:03they are the ones who are in a hurry, right?
01:05It's unfair to accuse it to the present administration or to the Marcos Administration.
01:13It was the ICC who issued the warrant of arrest
01:17and this administration only implemented and effected the warrant of arrest.
01:34This is a story of justice.
01:36This is a story of justice, what is happening now.
01:39But this story is not yet over,
01:43and the only certainty is that justice is not sleeping yet,
01:51and God is not sleeping yet.
01:55First, Senate President Francis Escudero urged the public to be calm in the middle of the issue
02:01and to respect what happened.
02:03He also called on those who are running for the 2025 House of Representatives
02:07to avoid using the issue just for their own interests and candidacy.
02:13The congressmen are in favor of this.
02:16To be honest, in these times, we should start healing,
02:22especially for the AJK victims.
02:24I think we owe it to them to make sure that the healing starts,
02:28but that healing will come only through one thing, through justice.
02:32Meanwhile, in a statement,
02:34Ako Bicol Partylist Representative Zaldico denied the spread of the congressman's ownership
02:41of the aircraft used in the transfer of former President Duterte to the Netherlands.
02:45While House Secretary General Reginald Velasco confirmed that Davao City Representative Paulo Duterte
02:52asked for a travel clearance to go to the Netherlands and Japan,
02:55which was also approved by the camera.
02:59For now, the congressmen will continue to monitor the conversation
03:03about the ICC and impeachment.
