THE HAGUE, Netherlands (The Adobo Chronicles, Berlin Bureau) – Every law practitioner around the world knows that pending investigations or court cases may not be discussed in public. It is called a gag order.
And more so if you are a judge of the International Criminal Court investigating a former Philippine president for alleged crimes against humanity.
Well, thanks to Rappler reporter (on sabbatical) Lian Buan, ICC Judge Solomy Balungi Bossa has been suspended from serving in the court!
This after Buan snitched on former President Duterte during an impromptu meeting with Bossa over wine and cocktails, and even flaunted it on her Twitter account.
ICC is investigating Duterte for alleged extra-judicial killings in his war on drugs.
DAVAO CITY, Philippines (The Adobo Chronicles, Davao Bureau) – They’re probably the closest confidants of former Rodrigo Duterte, but this time, they were asked by the former Philippine president to leave him alone.
They — Senators Bong Go and Bato dela Rosa — have strongly suggested that Duterte be appointed as President Bongbong Marcos’ Drug Czar (read: to continue the bloody war on drugs).
In response, Duterte said that Marcos is now the president and should be given full support to pursue his own anti-drug campaign.
Duterte’s message to Go and dela Rosa: “Stop kissing my *ss!”
MANILA, Philippines (The Adobo Chronicles, Manila Bureau) – Every year, on a day in the month of May, the town of Pulilan, Bulacan in the Phlippines, celerates the Kneeling Carabao Festival, during which carabaos are paraded in the streets and made to kneel in front of the church. It is definitely a sight to behold.
But it is not only carabaos that kneel in the Philippines. Even senators do.
Case in point: Senator Bato de la Rosa knelt in front of witness cops, begging them tell the truth during a Senate hearing.
