Senate Minority Leader Franklin M. Drilon said Saturday dismissed Bureau of Corrections (BuCor) Director Nicanor Faeldon could be held liable for releasing convicts serving time for heinous crimes without the necessary approval of the Department of Justice (DOJ) secretary.

In a DWIZ radio interview, Drilon said Faeldon should head the list of BuCor officials to be held liable by the Office of the Ombudsman being the director of the country’s biggest penal institution.

Drilon, a former Justice Secretary and former Senate President, said it is clear that BuCor officials did not follow a Department of Justice memorandum order that the release of parole orders of BuCor must be reviewed by the DoJ secretary.Duterte: I’m firing Faeldon Yolanda Camelon, wife of the inmate, felt bad that her husband remains in jail despite promises of some BuCor officials who were in charge of his prison records of his early release. She said the money she gave is ‘’hard-earned money.’’On the theory that Faeldon did not know of this, Drilon said there may be no evidence to show he was involved but it is clear that ‘’there is incompetence or negligence for having failed to catch this kind of anomaly happening under his very nose.

He said it is very evident that Mrs. Camelon testified about what was happening at the prisons compound without fear.
