"First reason po ay wala pong staff/personnel sa Office of the City Prosecutor na pumapasok dahil po sa suspension ng public transport. Wala pong available na stenographer na gagawa po ng Information," That's why it was important for the Department of Justice to issue a circular saying inquest proceedings will remain operational. The Supreme Court also kept select courts open to process urgent matters like bail."I have just issued today a department circular reiterating my directive for inquest prosecutors to report/be on call. Will ask Prosecutor General Ben Malcontento to look into this asap," Guevarra told reporters.
