Ibinahagi ng new organization na SMNI ang naging pahayag ni US Secretary of State Mike Pompeo laban kay International Criminal Court prosecutor Fatou Bensouda.
Sa banat ni Pompeo, tinawag niyang “corrupt” ang ICC prosecutor at nagsayang umano ng malaking halaga ng pera.
Sinabi ni Pompeo ang pahayag na ito 5 buwan na ang nakakalipas.
Naging laman ng mga balita kamakailan si Bensouda matapos nitong paboran ang pagpapatuloy ng imbestigasyon laban sa war on drugs ng Duterte Government.
Sa kaniyang press release, binanatan naman ni Senator Francis Tolentino ang kredibilidad ni Bensouda.
“I still have some doubts as to the official credibility of former prosecutor Fatou Bensouda’s ICC recommendations announced hours before she retired from ICC last Tuesday (June 15,2021).We should note that previously Madame Bensouda was included in the SDN (specifically designated national) list of the US government under President Trump . Besouda as a US designated “terrorist” was considered as a threat to US national security and foreign and economic policies and though a former bank manager, her financial transactions and those dealing with her were blocked by the US Treasury. How can she during her tenure objectively conduct an investigation when some members of the international community considered her as persona non grata for terrorist links? A lot of questions will have to be answered first whether a retired prosecutor can still recommend the prosecution of a head of state of a non Treaty of Rome signatory,” saad ni Senator Tolentino.
Nitong Abril 2, pinatanggal na ni President Joe Biden US sanction laban kay Bensouda.
