Plane carrying arrested former Philippine President Rodrigo Duterte leaves Manila Tuesday night for him to be turned over to the International Criminal Court in The Hague .

President Ferdinand Marcos says his arrest is "proper and correct" and not an act of political persecution.

The global court ordered his arrest through Interpol after accusing him of crimes against humanity over deadly anti-drugs crackdowns he oversaw while in office.

The ICC began investigating drug killings under the Philippines in 2011 , when he was mayor of Davao , to March 16, 2019 , as possible crimes against humanity.

The Philippines withdrew the Philippines from the Rome Statute , the court’s founding treaty, in a move human rights activists say was aimed at escaping accountability.

The ICC can step in when countries are unwilling or unable to prosecute suspects in the most serious crimes.
