00:00 More than triple the number of prisoners in the city jails across the country.

00:09 The problem is that the heat is more intense in their prisons.

00:14 Maki Pulido has more.

00:16 700 people are in this Manila City Jail.

00:23 The cells and cells are already full, so they are just in the prisons at night.

00:28 And in the heat, the heat is too intense, the industrial fan is not enough.

00:34 I might get a headband, so I'll just wet a gallon of water, that's it.

00:39 So my body will be fresh.

00:41 I'm sweating, I can't sleep. I need to take a bath.

00:44 It's good that no one is sick in the heat at this time.

00:48 Even more than 3,000 people are already in the facility, which is only for more than 1,000.

00:54 We require our PDLs to regularly take their bath, not just once or twice.

01:01 The new Quezon City Jail in Payatas is still spacious.

01:04 Almost 1,000 people are already in the facility for 4,000.

01:08 But the electric fans in some cells are broken and still being repaired.

01:12 In the whole country, the congestion rate has reached 334% or more than triple the capacity of the prisoners in the city jails.

01:21 The air is quickly contaminated, so the usual diseases are monitored in the city jails whenever it's hot.

01:27 Like acute gastroenteritis, skin disease, heat rash, fungal infection, and conjunctivitis.

01:33 There is no exact number yet, but there are a few people who are sick.

01:37 As early as the first quarter, the medicine was procured.

01:41 We trained all jail nurses on summer-related diseases to ensure that we have water supplies.

01:48 However, in most city jails, this has already spread.

01:53 This is a result of the decongestion plan of the BJMP, like the pre-bargaining agreement for the low cases of illegal drugs.

02:00 If admitted, the sentence will be lightened and the release will be early, which will help in spreading the disease because 70% of the cases in the city jail are drug-related.

02:09 Most of the prisoners here are using drugs or possessions and use.

02:15 Because of that, there was an arrangement.

02:18 That's what a 72-year-old PDL who I spoke to said.

02:22 He admitted that he was just waiting for the court to hear his case instead of going to the city jail.

02:28 I don't have money. I am just admitting it so I can be released immediately.

02:32 For GMA Integrated News, Macky Pulido, for Tutok, 24 hours.
