The Philippine political world has been shaken once again when former President Rodrigo Duterte suddenly made a shocking statement regarding an alleged illegal arrest! Is there an underground force manipulating justice? Or is this a sign of a new confrontation between Duterte and the current administration?

In a strong statement, former President Duterte did not hesitate to criticize the parties involved in the arrest, which he considered “illegal and full of irregularities”. Although he did not name any individual or organization behind the incident, he affirmed that “this is a blatant act, violating human rights and taking advantage of power to manipulate justice”.

A close source revealed that Duterte expressed anger at the way this case was handled, even hinting that there might be political forces using the judicial system to serve their own interests.

Although he did not directly name anyone, Duterte’s ambiguous statements caused a stir in public opinion. Many believe that he is targeting the current administration or some powerful group in the judicial system. Many netizens have asked: Is Duterte implying that the current government is using the law to eliminate opponents?

Some sources also believe that the arrest he mentioned may involve his former allies or individuals who had close ties to him during his time in office. If this is true, the political battle in the Philippines will be more intense than ever!

Immediately after Duterte’s statement, a wave of backlash erupted on social media. Duterte’s supporters called for clarification of the incident, even demanding an independent investigation. Meanwhile, those on the opposition side said that Duterte was trying to attract attention and distract public opinion from other issues.

The current government has yet to officially respond to Duterte’s statement, but some officials have hinted that no one is above the law, no matter who they are or how influential they are.

With his strong personality, Duterte certainly won’t easily stay silent in the face of what he considers injustice. Will he continue to make public more information about this arrest? Or even take the matter to a higher level, putting pressure on the current administration?

All of that remains a mystery. But one thing is for sure: When Duterte speaks, the whole country will follow!
