Department of Justice (DOJ) spokesman and Undersecretary Markk Perete disclosed on Thursday (Sept. 11) that the Bureau of Immigration (BI) is almost done checking whether any of the 1,914 heinous convicts released due Good Conduct Time Allowance (GCTA) have left the country.

“There are 126 names more that BI is verifying. Yun na lang ang natitira sa 1,900 plus na natapos na nila iverify ,” said Perete, who supervises the BI.

The BI conducted the verification after Department of Interior and Local Government Secretary Eduardo Año said he has received reports that among the 1,914 convicts released through GCTA there have been a number who have already left the country.
