MANILA, Philippines – The Philippine National Police (PNP) will not be extending the visiting hours for the three detained senators in Camp Crame, Quezon City this holiday, its spokesman said Tuesday.

Police Chief Superintendent Wilben Mayor, PNP spokesman, said senators Ramon “Bong” Revilla Jr., Jose “Jinggoy” Estrada, and Juan Ponce Enrile would have to follow the regular visiting hours this coming Christmas Day and New Year’s Day.

Mayor said the PNP custodial center would impose the same visiting hours observed during regular days for the three senators.

He added that the PNP General Hospital where Enrile is detained would also follow the same visiting hours.

The regular visiting hour rule is from 1 p.m. to 5 p.m. on weekdays and 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. on weekends.

“We will be observing the normal visiting hours imposed by the PNP headquarters support service,” Mayor said.

He said visitors may bring any food they wish for the detained senators.

The police official mentioned that Enrile made an earlier request for film showing of the movie, “Hari ng Tondo,” inside his ward at the PNP hospital.

The two other senators, he said, have not made any request.

The three senators have been detained at the PNP headquarters in Camp Crame for their alleged involvement in the multi-billion pork barrel scam allegedly masterminded by Janet Lim-Napoles.
