The Department of Justice (DOJ), which supervises the BuCor, has ordered an investigation into the allegations of "abusive" strip searches by prison guards.

Acting NBP Superintendent Ruben Formoso signed the order for Corrections Officers 1 Karen Soriano, Kiera Iket, Odesa Etong, Ahmor Darasin, Guada Bello, Melowyne Tallongan and Angelique Domingo to be placed on "attached or unassigned" status with the NBP superintendent's office.

"The investigation on the seven corrections officers will focus on how they conducted their strip search, whether they violated protocol on the conduct of strip search being implemented by the bureau," he said.
