Manila, Philippines - The queen of 10B pork barrel scam, Janet Lim Napoles is now in Makati City Jail as PNP transferred her before midnight on Thursday, August 29, 2013.
Napoles arrived at the City Jail 11:20p.m. wearing bullet proof vest and hands covered by white cloth.
Napoles would be given a temporary 'office-type airconditioned room' separate from 52 other women detainees in the spartan dormitory at the Makati City Jail contrary to earlier reports due to security concerns.
DILG Secretary Mar Roxas and PNP chief Purisima say members of SAF, BJMP and other security personnel will guard Napoles 24/7.
Earlier today, the Makati City Regional Trial Court Branch 150 has released a commitment order stating that Napoles should be detained at the regular jail in Makati since it is within its jurisdiction.
However, Napoles’ counsel Lorna Kapunan filed a motion late yesterday afternoon asking that the court allow Napoles to stay either at the PNP detention center or in Camp Bagong Diwa in Taguig City.
Roxas says Napoles' medical condition was checked while at Camp Crame before her transfer and will go through another check once inside the Makati City Jail.
Napoles was at Camp Crame, the headquarters of the Philippine National Police (PNP), the whole day Thursday, August 29 where she was detained.
Janet Lim Napoles surrendered to President Aquino Wednesday night, August 28.
