Jalosjos may remain
at max security prison |
|
By Jonathan M. Hicap, Reporter
CONVICTED child rapist and former
Zamboanga del Norte representative Romeo Jalosjos may be serving the
rest of his prison term at the New Bilibid Prison’s Maximum
Security Compound for his own good, according to Director Vicente
Vinarao of the Bureau of Corrections.
While Jalosjos is entitled to
move to the prison’s Minimum Security Compound after President
Arroyo commuted his sentence, Vinarao prefers to keep the convict at
the maximum prison facility for security reasons.
