President Rodrigo Duterte has ordered next-in-rank employees to temporarily assume the duties of prison officials who were suspended for the controversial early release of heinous crime convicts.

MANILA, Philippines–

Earlier, Ombudsman Samuel Martires ordered the six-month suspension of 30 BuCor personnel in connection with the release of 1,914 heinous crimes convicts whose prison terms were shortened due to the GCTA granted to them.Justice Secretary Menardo Guevarra, for his part, said he wanted the Department of Justice to regain some form of “control” over the BuCor after the Senate hearing uncovered continuing corruption in prisons.

Since the law was passed in 2013, Perete added, the DOJ could only exercise administrative supervision over the BuCor instead of control.The DOJ and the Department of the Interior and Local Government are expected to issue on Monday the new implementing rules and regulations for the 2013 law that increased GCTA for prisoners.

The senators are investigating the controversial release of the heinous crime convicts on the strength of Republic Act No. 10592, or the expanded GCTA law, which was supposed to exclude people charged with heinous crimes.

Lahat yan nag bantay sa bucor walang silbi sa bayan..
