MANILA, Philippines 鈥� Malabon City Jail detainees on Friday afternoon staged a noise barrage and called for the removal of the warden in charge of the facility.
Photos and videos shared on social media, including that from Malabon Vice Mayor Bernard dela Cruz, showed detainees striking the barricades in protest of the warden鈥檚 policies.
Another set of photos on Malabon City鈥檚 community Facebook page showed detainees holding placards saying 鈥淚baba si Warden鈥� (Remove our warden), 鈥淏ulok ang sistema鈥� (The system is rotten), and 鈥淜anin may bubog鈥� (Our rice have broken glass).
In dela Cruz鈥� video, detainees were also seen tossing what seems to be paper, as the Vice Mayor tries to negotiate with them.听
They also asked for food from dela Cruz, who in turn asked that the detainees get down from the building鈥檚 walls and fences.
has sought the side of the Bureau of Jail Management and Penology (BJMP) regarding the issue but they have yet to respond as of posting time.
