160 prisoners in North Cotabato released

KIDAPAWAN CITY: Over 160 detainees from different jails in North Cotabato have been freed through the government’s Enhanced Justice on Wheels program.

Supreme Court (SC) deputy court administrator Thelma Bahia, who attended the recent hearings of the 227 cases, said the program is aimed at “unclogging dockets in courts and decongesting the heavy population in district jails.”
