Questions have been raised around the way former Philippine President Rodrigo Duterte was picked up by police at the Ninoy Aquino International Airport (NAIA) in Manila, bundled up, and shoved into a private jet bound for Rotterdam in the Netherlands where he now waits to face the “International Criminal Court” (ICC) in The Hague.

So former Philippine President Rodrigo Duterte was arrested today on the back of a warrant issued by the International Criminal Court (ICC).

The readily-evident relationships at the top make its intent a foregone…
