The International Criminal Court (ICC) on Sept. 22 published details of the charges against former Philippine President Rodrigo Duterte, which include allegations that he was involved in the extrajudicial killing of 76 people.

The 15-page charge sheet document says the alleged crimes related to his presidential term, from 2016 to 2022, and an earlier period when he was mayor of Davao City in the southern Philippines.
