Look: A description of the possible detention cell of Sen. De Lima breaks in.
LOOK – The possible detention cell of Sen. Leila De Lima in case the Muntinlupa Court would decide that she would be detained at Philippine National Police Custodial Center has been described.
The arrest of Sen. De Lima has undeniably sparked lots of news reports today and elicited various reactions.
Based on a report in GMA News Online, in case the Muntinlupa Court that handles the case of the lady lawmaker would decide that she would be detained at the PNP Custodial Center, she would be placed in a cell that has no aircon as a source has told GMA News Online.
Nevertheless, the source said that it has an electric fan there and she would have her own comfort room.
Furthermore, the source described it as “dignified, decent, safe, and secured” according to the news report. If ever the court would decide to detain the lady Senator at PNP Custodial Center, she would be the only female inmate there.
Based on a previous news report, Sen. De Lima has surrendered herself this morning to the arresting team. She was escorted by Senate Sergeant-At-Arms Jose Balajadia to the Criminal Investigation and Detection Group’s agents.
The lady Senator is currently facing allegations of involvement in the drug trade inside the New Bilibid Prison (NBP) when she was the secretary of the Department of Justice.
Reportedly, it was yesterday when the Muntinlupa RTC Branch 204 has issued the warrants of arrest against her, Ronnie Dayan, and Rafael Argos. Dayan is the former bodyguard and driver of the Senator. He was also the former lover and the alleged ‘bagman’ of Sen. De Lima.
Last night, contrary to what was earlier planned, the lady Senator did not spend the night with her family but instead went back to the Senate. She vowed to allow the arresting team to serve her the warrant of arrest on Friday.
