He was detained in The Hague, and Dotty continues a political return at home

Rodrigo Duxe has been kept in a cell in The Hague for more than three weeks for crimes against humanity for the sake Fittable campaigns to combat Ashraf in the Philippines.

But the former president is still under voting in the mayor’s elections in his base next month, a race that political analysts say is a good opportunity to win. It also pushed a wave of sympathy for Mr. Doterti, candidates in other races to express his support.

Even from a distance, still draws crowds.

Thousands of people wearing the green color associated with its political party were immersed in the streets of Davao, in the southern Philippines, on March 28, where they turned into a birthday celebration of Mr. Duterti into a huge political gathering.

Other gatherings were conducted throughout the Philippines and outside – including outside the detention center of the International Criminal Court in the Netherlands, where Mr. Dutti is being held after his arrest on March 11.

In Davao, Mr. Deutrty is still widely common, and he remembers him to take strict measures against problems such as drugs, small crime and violence.

“Why is the man who saved us in prison?” Joel Valiss, 46, who joined the gathering last month with his mother, Proveria Valis, asked 84.

The restaurant run by Valis in the city of Davao, and the original Cabwan from Sana and Bollewan, was a favorite drop for Mr. Dutti, decorating with the former president and children.

Like many business owners in Davao, Mr. Valis said he closed early so that his employees could attend the gathering.

Many people brought cakes and large cardboard cuts with pictures of Mr. Doterti to the gathering. It was followed by a concert, with the appearance of local singers and politicians on stage until midnight.

As a mayor, Mr. Doterti was an author in the Philippines. When he launched a presidency in 2016, Ferdinand Marcus Junior – the president – now to Davao to ask whether he could be his colleague in running. (It was rejected.)

To the supporters of Mr. Doterti, Davao has become a typical city under it: safe, organized and disciplined. His critics said that a place where the outside of the judiciary was normalized for suspected criminals.

Mr. Doterti Accused by the International Criminal Court From the management of the alleged death team in Davao, a guard group that worked as a judge, a jury and a beauty. Rights groups say that their goals were Passifin criminals and drug dealers in the slums of poor neighborhoods.

From 1998 to 2015, the team killed at least 1424 people in Davao alone A local alliance cited the pardon international. As a president, the drug war in Duttiti was bloody. The rights groups place the death toll between 12,000 and 30,000.

Now, Mr. Dutti is trying to return political from his cell, as he runs for the mayor of the city, who was ruled for the first time in 1988 and ruled for more than two decades.

His younger son, Sebastian Duttri, holds the position but deviated aside to run for the mayor’s deputy. The May 12 election campaign began on March 28 – Mr. Dutti’s birthday.

Carlo notes, former Minister of Cabinet of President Doterti, was seen as leading the municipal race against an unpopular concern. But political analysts said that the nomination of Mr. Duterte had raised the race, and that he had stopped a good opportunity to win.

Analysts see the nominations of Mr. Deutrty and his family members as an effort to defend and preserve the family of his family in the south.

Another son of Mr. Deutrt, Paulo, also runs for positions as a boycott representative. Ibn Paulo, Rodrigo II, aims to become a city consultant. If the four duttertes wins, and the former president resigns after the elections, Sebastian will become a mayor, and Rodrigo II may become a vice -residency if he wins more than the elected votes of the council.

With the Senate elections on the same day, Mr. Doterti also had ripples in national policy. This has complicated a tangled network of loyalties and competitions that President Marcus was at odds with his vice -president Sarah Dutti, the daughter of his predecessor.

Mr. Marcos said early in his administration that he would not cooperate with the International Criminal Court in his endeavor to Mr. Dutti, but he later reflected his course after Mrs. Doterti threatened his existence and His family was assassinated.

In Manila, it appears that some of the Senate candidates who are in line with Mr. Doterti are getting a slight elevator in the polls, says political analysts. Even some of the candidates supported by Mr. Marcus, including his sister Amy, spoke against the arrest of Mr. Deutri.

However, questions about the duration that duttertes can keep their momentum.

Mrs. Doterti said her father is eager to return home and “Davao service”. But at the same time, she urged supporters to move forward because he “You may never return.”

Returning to Davao, the crowd in the Christmas rally looked hoped to do.

At one point, a drone displayed in the night sky, where the configurations display a series of photos: Mr. Dotrt, his brand, and then signature.

“Bring it home!” The crowd cried.
