Posts misrepresent pre-trial decision as ICC dropping charges against Rodrigo Duterte

The International Criminal Court (ICC) has not dismissed 57 charges against former Philippine president Rodrigo Duterte, contrary to posts spreading the false claim ahead of the ex-leader's trial set for November 30. The posts appear to wrongly present the trial judges' decision that one drug-related killing -- called Incident 57 -- falls outside the scope of charges and needs to be removed from the case as a decision to drop charges against the former leader.
