THE Cebu City Jail sought help from the city government to clean up the septic tank in their premises, saying it was filled well over capacity.
Jail Supt. Ma. Victoria Jimenez said their city jail is reeking and its foul odor is due to the overflowing septic tank, which services 2,044 inmates.
“This problem always recurs because the inmates’ population is getting bigger and bigger,” said Jimenez in a letter to the City Council.
The council referred the request to the public services committee for action. Jimenez said she wants the septic tank cleaned monthly. Correspondent Edison delos Angeles
