ICC Rules Duterte Fit to Stand Trial for Crimes Against Humanity

An independent expert panel has determined that former Philippine President Rodrigo Duterte is mentally and physically fit to stand trial at the ICC on charges of crimes against humanity linked to his anti-drug campaign. The ruling removes a key procedural hurdle, moving the case closer to a full trial. This development is significant as it affirms the ICC's jurisdiction and could set a precedent for accountability of former heads of state.
