The case of Tan was mentioned by Senator Franklin Drilon when he said that the re-arrest of the 1,914 heinous crime convicts is possible if the release was in violation of the law and rules.In this case, Fidel Tan was ordered rearrested by the Supreme Court after he was ordered released by the Provincial Jail Warden after applying the good conduct time allowance .

The Court said rearresting Tan “would not place him twice in jeopardy because his re-incarceration is merely a continuation of the penalty that he had not completely served due to the erroneous act of the warden.”., the Integrated Bar of the Philippines filed a petition for habeas corpus to release inmates from the Manila City Jail.The IBP found out that 34 inmates have earned enough time allowance to entitle them of their freedom.

The Supreme Court reversed the lower court’s ruling due to the absence of the BuCor chief’s certification.
