House Deputy Minority Leader and ACT Teachers Party-list Rep. France Castro believes there's a 'high possibility' the International Criminal Court (ICC) will issue an arrest warrant for former president Rodrigo Duterte for his bloody war on drugs.

The Makabayan solons in the House of Representatives have transitioned to being critics of incumbent leaders President Ferdinand "Bongbong" Marcos Jr. and Vice President Sara Duterte.

"Now there is a chance to stave this off only if and when the Philippine government launches a genuine and credible effort to investigate and charge those responsible for the killings even president Duterte," she said of the possible ICC action. "But with the current situation that only two cases of EJK have been solved and only low ranking policemen were punished, it would be a tall order indeed for the Marcos-Duterte government to convince the ICC that it is serious in serving justice to the thousands killed during Duterte's time," she further said.

The ICC issued the arrest warrant against Putin for the alleged war crimes, genocide, and crimes against humanity taking place amid Russia's invasion of Ukraine.
