In his speech during the 52nd session of the Human Rights Council, Remulla said 'unjustified external interference' rarely served the cause of human rights.

Justice Secretary Jesus Crispin Remulla on Wednesday told the United Nations Human Rights Council of the Philippines' rejection of the International Criminal Court’s reopening of its inquiry on the killings blamed on the previous administration's war on drugs.

“The Philippines has a fully functioning justice system under the complementarity test. The ICC, therefore, has no jurisdiction over Filipino citizens whatsoever,” Remulla said told the UN's human rights body. Remulla said the Philippines respected freedom of expression "and there are hundreds of mainstream media outfits and actors and thousands of social media practitioners."
