PROSECUTORS at the International Criminal Court (ICC) have proposed that the trial of former president Rodrigo Duterte begin on Nov. 30, 2026, while lawyers representing victims urged judges to start proceedings earlier in September and pressed for the use of Tagalog and Cebuano interpreters to ensure affected communities can follow the case.
