winning plus Inmates’ kin get holiday stay-in privileges – BuCor

MANILA, Philippines — Families of inmates across the country are allowed to visit prisons under the Bureau of Corrections (BuCor) during the holiday season to foster solidarity and promote the morale of prisoners.

Regular visiting hours are set from 8 a.m. to 3 p.m.

The BuCor also authorized special stay-in privileges for wives and common-law wives of inmates to provide an opportunity for extended bonding during this festive period.

BuCor Director General Gregorio Pio Catapang Jr. issued a memorandum outlining the implementation of these stay-in privileges, which will be conducted in two batches for each holiday.

" Very top-heavy ang PNP ngayon. I think we have 133 generals, parang gusto kong i-whittle down to 25 para mas flat ang organization," Remulla said in a press briefing.

“If the circumstance will not permit, courts are advised to always be reachable through their official email addresses and phone numbers for urgent matters,” Ting said in a message to Philstar.com.

This system aims to accommodate more families while ensuring order in prison facilities, Catapang said.

For Christmas, the first batch of families was allowed to stay from 8 a.m. until 7 a.m. on Dec. 24.
