MANILA – Former Sen. Antonio Trillanes IV said Sen. Bong Go could be the next individual to face an arrest warrant from the International Criminal Court, according to a report aired.
In a report, it said that based on Jun Veneracion’s report on 24 Oras, Trillanes claimed he received information that an ICC arrest warrant may be issued against Go, whom he tagged as a co-conspirator of former president Rodrigo Duterte in cases involving crimes against humanity, murder, and attempted murder.
“Ang susunod po ay Senator Bong Go…pero para maliwanag baka buwan pa ang bibilangin nito,” Trillanes said.
(The next one will be Senator Bong Go… but to be clear, this may still take months.)
Despite uncertainty on timing, Trillanes said he believes an arrest warrant will eventually be issued.
He alleged that Go was implicated in reports submitted to the ICC, claiming that during the period of alleged extrajudicial killings, he acted as a distributor of rewards for each killing and as a supposed leader of a “Special Operations Group” under what he described as Duterte’s “National Death Squad.”
“Ito yung pagbabayad o pagiging accountable…noong namamayagpag sila, wala silang pakialam sa buhay ng Pilipino. Ito na, singilan na ito,” he said.
(This is about payment or being held accountable… back when they were in power, they didn’t care about Filipino lives; now, the time has come to settle the score.)
Trillanes also said former Philippine National Police chief Oscar Albayalde could likewise face an ICC warrant.
