Sabio not licensed to practice in the ICC, says int'l criminal law expert

Jude Sabio, the lawyer of self-confessed hitman Edgar Matobato who  filed a 77-page against President Rodrigo Duterte in the International Criminal Court is not licensed to practice in the ICC and can hardly compete with the lawyers and professors there, said Atty. Paula Defensor-Knack.

Knack is the sister of late Senator Miriam Defensor Santiago and is an international law expert herself, that is based in the Hague.



She said that Sabio's abilities will be tested in the ICC as he will face giants in the field of law.

"O di ba? SA damo pa nagpapicture... LOL - sana janitor na lang pina-file mo...... hindi naman kaso yan eh," Knack said.

"If ever maging kaso, tingnan natin abilidad mo laban sa mga professor kong hindi natalo talo sa international criminal tribunals dito sa Hague," she said.

"Magaling mag-French at mag Ingles and a recognized expert. Mas magaling pa sa ibang judges. Kaya mi? Mga 10 silam" she added.

Knack said that the whole filing of the complaint is a propaganda war, as the ASEAN Summit with China is about to be held.



She also said that nothing can happen if the President has popular support.

She added that the cases filed will only be under the jurisdiction of the ICC if  the domestic courts will not pursue it.
