00:00It is still under study if Mary Jane Veloso will be given an executive clemency, according to the President.
00:08There is another possible way for her to be released, but for now, she will be in a correctional facility for Christmas,
00:15even though she is with her family.
00:17Joseph Moro is on the line.
00:22If President Bongbong Marcos, who has the power to give the executive clemency to Mary Jane Veloso,
00:28is the one who will ask, it is still under study if the executive clemency can be given to her.
00:33There is no condition that the Indonesian should sign an agreement with the Philippines
00:38to transfer Mary Jane Veloso here for a life sentence of imprisonment.
00:43We are still far from there.
00:45We still have to have a look at really what her status is.
00:49Of course, we are aware of the request for clemency from her representatives, of course, and from her family.
00:57We will leave it to the legal judgment of our legal experts to determine whether the provision of clemency is appropriate.
01:16According to the Department of Justice, we can also look at the parole for Mary Jane.
01:21She only needs to serve a minimum of 20 years in prison for a life sentence.
01:27For now, Mary Jane has been in prison for almost 15 years in Indonesia since April 2010.
01:33We will also look at what her system is there, first and second.
01:40What was her conduct there, third.
01:44What can be seen as favorable.
01:48Because the principle of our law is all procedural rules favorable to the accused are to be granted them.
01:59Under the Revised Implementing Rules and Guidelines of IRR of the Good Conduct Time Allowance Law,
02:05signed by DOJ on December 13,
02:08including the Good Conduct Time Allowance for all persons deprived of liberty or PDL,
02:14including cases of heinous crimes.
02:16According to Mary Jane's lawyer, if her GCTA is computed,
02:20she will only serve a minimum of 354 days and Mary Jane will be released from prison for 16 years,
02:28which is less than four years.
02:30The DOJ also added that the Board of Pardons and Parole will recommend to the President
02:54if Mary Jane can receive executive clemency or parole.
02:59The Board of Pardons and Parole should make the proper evaluation.
03:04It's a long process.
03:06Mary Jane's family also wants clemency like her.
03:10Because of the clemency, my daughter will surely be free.
03:14That's what I want.
03:16We will be with her for the rest of her life.
03:18Especially, their fight for Mary Jane is not a joke.
03:22They even joined her in returning home yesterday.
03:26I heard when I hugged Mary Jane and kissed her.
03:29I asked my daughter, when will you kill me?
03:32She cried. Now, we're here. She cried.
03:34According to Mary Jane, she doesn't have any clothes left
03:37because the Indonesians asked her to be her friend in prison.
03:42I told her, darling, I don't have any clothes.
03:46You're the only one. Huh? Why?
03:48My siblings said. I asked my friends.
03:51When he arrived here, he only brought a guitar,
03:54a few pieces of display, and a ring.
03:57That's all he brought.
03:58But more importantly, they will be together this Christmas.
04:02On Christmas, the Veloso family was allowed to perform at the Correctional.
04:07It's a rare opportunity after many years of separation.
04:11Because we will be together for 15 years,
04:15we are very happy as a family.
