De Lima has been detained in the police headquarters since February 2017 over her alleged involvement in the manufacture and sale of illegal drugs in the national penitentiary during her stint as Justice Secretary under the administration of former President Benigno Aquino III. She has repeatedly denied involvement and called her detention a political persecution.
