KUNG may dapat sisihin sa kaguluhan sa Bureau of Corrections, ayon kay Presidential Anti-Corruption Commissioner Manny Luna, ito ay sina Senator Leila De Lima at dating DILG Secretary Mar Roxas.
Ayon kay Luna: “They are partly to blame for the GCTA mess for crafting the glaringly infirm Implementing Rules and Regulation (IRR) of Repub-lic Act No. 10592, otherwise known as the ‘Good Conduct Time Allowance’ (GCTA) law- the subject of the ongoing Senate inquiry.”
“The two should explain to the Nation why they excluded from the IRR the four categories of ineligible or disqualified PDLs (revidivists, habitual delinquents and heinous crimes offenders) stated in the GCTA law, thus rendering such IRR susceptible to abuse by prison authorities (Bucor chiefs, BJMP chiefs, and wardens), and which resulted in the illegal release of close to 2,000 convicts accused and sentenced for heinous crimes and thousands of other convicts,” pahayag niya.
Ikinagalit naman ito ni Sen. De Lima na nagsabing walang hurisdiksiyon ang PACC sa kanya.
“Instead of venting her ire on us for raising issue about the De Lima- Roxas GCTA IRR, Senator Leila De Lima will do herself a favor by answer-ing the order of the Office of the Ombudsman. In the first place, I never said that the PACC has jurisdiction over her, a sitting senator. What I can vivid-ly remember, however, is that I stated that we don’t have jurisdiction over her and Senator Ronald Dela Rosa since they’re both senators, and that under the principle of separation power and for lack of legal basis, we cannot inquire into her action,” buwelta naman ni Luna.
Ayaw namang sagutin ni De Lima ang inquiry ng Ombudsman kung bakit pinayagan niya sa IRR noong DOJ secretary pa siya ang pag-qualify sa GCTA ng mga presong convicted ng heinous crime.
