00:00 Let's go back to the manhunt operation in 8 escaped prisoners in San Jose del Monte, Bulacan.
00:05 For the update, we have live news, James Azucena.
00:09 Susan, good morning.
00:14 Four more in the 8 escaped PDL or persons deprived of liberty are the authorities are looking for.
00:20 The police will now investigate how the prisoner could possibly be put inside the custodial facility.
00:27 [Police radio chatter]
00:30 It seems that no one is walking the group of men who were caught in San Pedro Street, Barangay Poblacion 1 in San Jose del Monte, Bulacan,
00:38 until 3 in the early morning yesterday.
00:40 The two men separated while the four were running away.
00:44 After almost 4 minutes, the CCTV footage shows that there are two more men running away, one of them is still in jail.
00:52 The eight men are persons deprived of liberty or PDL who escaped from the custodial facility of the City of San Jose del Monte Police Station.
01:00 The first four PDL can be seen in the CCTV footage who were riding a tricycle.
01:04 Two of them were stopped by a bus and were riding fast while the other two were walking on San Ignacio Street.
01:10 According to the police, the eight PDL are from cell number 4 of the police station.
01:15 He was discovered when the prisoners called for help from the officers on duty.
01:29 What did they say?
01:30 Sir, someone ran away. The prisoners escaped through the break-in of a steel window in a comfort room.
01:43 They were the ones who buried him.
01:45 Only five PDLs were buried.
01:48 The buried man was also recovered. He was 4 inches tall.
01:53 The police are still investigating how he was able to enter the custodial facility.
01:57 Only four of the eight PDLs escaped and were arrested by the police.
02:01 Based on the information we got from the operatives, some were taken to their nearest residence while others were taken to their homes.
02:12 The manhunt operations continues to find the other four PDLs.
02:16 All of them have cases related to illegal drugs.
02:19 Currently, the custodial facility window was partially covered by cement where the PDLs passed through.
02:27 Meanwhile, Susan, the police are appealing to the four PDLs they are looking for to surrender their cases.
02:37 If they are in their custody or if they have information on where the PDLs are, they can coordinate with the police.
02:44 That's the first news. From Bulacan, I'm James Agustin for GEMI Integrated News.
02:49 James, did the window affect the custodial facility because of the break-in?
02:54 Yes, Susan. They tightened the window of the custodial facility.
03:03 Actually, this is the City of San Jose del Monte Police Station.
03:06 There are four custodial facilities here.
03:08 One is for the female PDLs while the other three are for the men.
03:13 At the end, there is a break-in.
03:15 Now, the police are telling us that from today,
03:18 they will tighten their charges on the use of the PDLs here in the custodial facility.
03:23 Susan.
