00:00The Department for the Interior and Local Government and the Philippine National Police set a deadline of one week for
00:06International Criminal Court suspect, Senator Bato de la Rosa, to surrender.
00:10Senator Bato mistook my gesture of negotiation as a sign of weakness.
00:16It's time for the gloves to come off.
00:20It's time to bring justice to his victims.
00:24Rimulya also announces a 50 million peso reward for those who can help in de la Rosa's arrest.
00:29The Interior Chief also described de la Rosa as armed and dangerous.
00:33We have given him all the courtesy that could be afforded as Senator of the Republic of the Philippines.
00:40But he has shown nothing but cowardice by going into and remaining in hiding.
00:47In November last year, the ICC Pretrial Chamber 1 issued a warrant against de la Rosa for his role in
00:53former President Rodrigo Duterte's drug war.
00:55He was Duterte's first PNP chief who implemented the anti-drug campaign, which human rights organizations said took the lives
01:02of nearly 30,000 people.
