00:00Today, we will visit the Correctional Institution for Women of the Viloso family
00:04to celebrate Christmas with Mary Jane.
00:06Let's hear from Joseph Moro.
00:12Christmas is for the family, as they say.
00:14And the Viloso family felt it this month
00:17when the Bureau of Corrections in Bucor allowed us to visit Mary Jane Viloso.
00:22Her parents are excited.
00:24T-shirts and other things that Mary Jane requested are already prepared.
00:28Even Ms. Celia is ready to wear something.
00:32Mary Jane's family is not with her for the 14th Christmas
00:35since she was imprisoned in Indonesia in 2010.
00:38We thought we would die as husband and wife,
00:41that we would not be able to see Mary Jane,
00:43that we would not be able to be with her.
00:45But God gave us a chance.
00:48We will really make up for yesterday.
00:51I think I will not be able to see my daughter
00:57especially when our home is near.
01:02They will also prepare some of the foods requested by Mary Jane.
01:06Tinomis, pork sinigang, spaghetti, and salad.
01:14Puto!
01:16More than 20 siblings and other relatives will visit Mary Jane.
01:20Including her two children who will be evacuated from Nueva Ecija.
01:24But Bucor's regulations are strict
01:26on the visit of prohibited pictures or videos in the reception area
01:29of the Correctional Institution for Women in Mandaluyong.
01:32They were allowed to bring gifts but not gifts.
01:36Mary Jane's state is still being remembered as a person deprived of liberty.
01:40But in front of the celebration,
01:42there is a Christmas wish from the Viloso family to the President.
01:45I feel sorry for my daughter.
01:47She has been in the hospital for a long time.
01:51Please give her to us so that we can be with her.
01:56According to Mary Jane's lawyers,
01:58there is no legal obstacle for Mary Jane to receive an executive clemency
02:03after the Philippines and Indonesia signed a transfer agreement
02:07wherein after the sentence of life imprisonment has been lowered,
02:12here in the Philippines, the sentence will be increased.
02:15I read very carefully the statement of the Coordinating Ministry.
02:20It says that the responsibility for the rehabilitation, remission,
02:27or clemency is now passed on to the Philippine government
02:33and they will respect that.
02:35For BBM, it can demonstrate decisiveness.
02:41It can also demonstrate a head of one's country's empathy,
02:48mercy, sense of justice.
02:51Malacanang has not yet announced if Mary Jane will receive a clemency.
02:56According to the Bureau of Corrections,
02:58persons deprived of liberty during Christmas
03:02such as those who were sentenced short due to the Good Conduct Time Allowance will be released.
03:06Joseph Moro reporting for GMA Integrated News.
03:11Thanks for watching.
