JAIL READY FOR 200 SUSPECTS IN FLOOD CONTROL MESS - JONVIC
Tempo
|October 21, 2025
The government is prepared to detain up to 200 individuals in regular jail facilities should charges be filed in connection with the multi-billion peso flood control scandal, Department of the Interior and Local Government (DILG) Secretary Juanito Victor “Jonvic” Remulla said on Monday, Oct. 20.
In a press briefing, Remulla emphasized that the Bureau of Jail Management and Penology (BJMP) is ready to accommodate those who may be indicted, regardless of social status.
“The rules of the jail will apply to the rich and to the poor the same,” he said.
“We are preparing regular jail cells. If a thief of P100 at SM, if a thief and a shoplifter of lotion are jailed here, those who steal billions, in my opinion, should also be jailed here,” Remulla asserted.
