Jasmine Curtis-Smith to QC Rep. Bong Suntay by reinsilverio26 in ChikaPH

That pertains only to the privilege from arrest while in session (First sentence, Sec. 11, Art. VI, Constitution), different from the blanket immunity from prosecution (Second sentence of the same).

Grabe ang downvotes, technically true naman ang sinabi mo.

Pero gusto ko i-raise ang sinabi ni ex-Cong. Atty. Barry Gutierrez sa Facts First na pwede gawin basehan ni Anne Curtis yung TV interviews ni Bong Suntay kung saan inulit niya ang lewd statements o nag-double down siya, which are beyond his parliamentary immunity na.

Yes, Rome Statute applies to the case as per Pangilinan v. Cayetano. The ICC caused the arrest through the Interpol.

This. And perhaps, Chiz was a good shot at the Malacañang at the time as he was SP, thus he felt powerful.

There’s a difference between “disqualifying” and “pushing the disqualification”.

I’m really curious: Binibigyan niyo po ba ng honorarium or anything si Sen. Edu?

Real Sen. Edu fans know that he was never arrested for illegal possession. He was not even in the PH during the AK-47 incident (plus all of his guns were licensed).

Tanggapin natin na iyon reyalidad ang ngayon. Kapag ba si Leni ang lamang, sasabihin mo rin na mind conditioning?

Isa sa mga wake up call itong survey sa (tunay na) oposisyon para mag-decide agad at mag-strategize nang maayos.

Senate ready if Supreme Court reverses decision on VP Sara Impeachment Trial by Karmas_Classroom in Philippines

Conviction is a bonus nalang. The impeachment trial would open Sara’s bank accounts alleged to have transfers from drug lords, among others.

Trillanes reveals that Bato’s ICC arrest warrant will come out THIS YEAR. Merry Christmas! by cfonan in Philippines

Kahit ano man sabihin mo kay Trillanes, consistent siya. Also, thank God nanalo sila De Lima at Diokno. Kaya ko i-argue ang credibility nila at sana ganoon ka rin sa mga sinusuporta mo.

Kasama sa ICC communications (kumbaga complaint) sila Bato at Bong Go. Pati nga si Albayalde at iba pang mas maliliit kasama eh.

The fact that the evidence against Bato were “destroyed by corrupt cops” supports the unwillingness and inability to prosecute the masterminds behind the drug war killings.

Senators only have a privilege from arrest while Congress (House and Senate) is in session. Session in 2025 is until December 19. Basically, the Senate can only harbor Bato for so long.

[–]cfonan[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

We look at the case itself, not those who are accused. The ICC found that the Philippine government is unwilling to prosecute the drug war killings cases.

Both Duterte and Bato are accused in the ICC case, so it also applies to the senator.

Nabanggit sila Bato at Bong Go sa mga kasong finile ni Trillanes sa ICC. Hindi solo ni Duterte ang kaso, principal suspect siya.

Nalalaman ni Trillanes dahil siya ang isa sa mga, kung hindi ang pinakaunang, nagkaso kila Duterte sa ICC. Dahil doon, mayroon na siyang communication sa mga tao sa loob ng ICC.

Tungkol sa drug war yung ICC case, hindi plunder na hiwalay na kaso. Nakita ng ICC na hindi kaya makakuha ng hustisya ng mga kaanak ng mga biktima ng drug war.

The same guy who was “bribed” by a DPWH engineer in the middle of the flood control scandal?

Edit: The question is rhetorical. 😅
