Vice Pres. Sara Duterte Claims Conversation with Former Pres. Duterte Allegedly Recorded by ICC
SARA DUTERTE – The daughter of former President Rodrigo Roa Duterte confirmed that she is on the list of the personalities that the International Criminal Court (ICC) might arrest.
After staying for three (3) weeks in The Hague to finalize the ICC legal team of her father, Vice Pres. Duterte has returned to the Philippines. She is busy appearing in campaign sorties to endorse the candidates of the PDP-Laban in the May 2025 Elections as well as Senator Imee Marcos and Las Piñas Congresswoman Camille Villar.
Now, it is Davao City First District Congressman Paolo Duterte who is in The Hague. Prior to her return to the Philippines, the Vice President claimed that her conversations with former Pres. Rodrigo Duterte were about life and family. According to her, all legal matters are discussed between him and his lawyers.
Vice Pres. Sara Duterte even thanked Pres. Bongbong Marcos for her renewed relationship with her father. Later on, she clarified that it was a “sarcasm”. Recently, the Vice President claimed that her conversations with former Pres. Duterte were allegedly recorded.
In an interview posted on the Facebook page of Nurse Mae Lagaan, Vice Pres. Sara Duterte claimed she also found out that her name is allegedly on the list of the personalities who might be arrested by the ICC. According to her, there are many of them in the list and her name is on the bottom part.
“Oo. Nasa listahan ako… Marami kami na nasa listahan ng ICC,” she said.
Vice Pres. Sara Duterte claimed that she started to wonder after the ICC allegedly limited her visits to former Pres. Rodrigo Roa Duterte. According to her, initially, she was allowed to visit her father every day.
According to her, after she was no longer allowed to make a daily visit to former Pres. Duterte, their conversations were allegedly recorded. They speculated that the ICC was listening to their conversations.
“Nalaman ko iyan kasi pagdating ko doon, nagtataka ako bakit sa simula pwede pa ako bumisita araw-araw. Hininto nila, pagkatapos nire-record na ang mga pinag-uusapan namin ni Pangulong Duterte. So, naiintindihan namin na nakikinig sila sa aming usapan,” the Vice President said based on the post.
Previously, the ICC confirmed that they have an ongoing investigation of the other personalities linked to Duterte’s drug war. The foreign court also confirmed that more arrest warrants may be released.
