THREAD: The Commission on Human Rights is investigating police in Silay, Negros Occidental for parading quarantine violators as zombies.

@iampinkywebb speaks to Silay Police Chief Major Rollie Pondevilla on #TheSource.
Silay police chief: Maraming nagrereklamo sa ating mayor na bumabalik na sa normal 'yung galaw ng mga tao. Kaya 'yung ginawa ng kapulisan, nanghuli ng mga hindi naka face mask at hindi nagoobserve ng physical distancing.
Silay police chief on parading quarantine violators as zombies: Pinalinya lang natin sila at dinala sa covered court malapit sa police station, mga 20 meters lang po. Kung hindi nakataas 'yung kamay, magsisiksikan sila.
Silay police chief says quarantine violators were asked to raise their arms as a 'preventive measure' to maintain physical distancing
Silay police chief: Wala kaming sinabi na dalawang arms 'yung i-raise nila. Wala akong balak na ipahiya sila.
Silay police chief denies he made quarantine violators parade as zombies, maintains that they raised their arms for physical distancing: Para sa kapakanan nila 'yon
Silay police chief on quarantine violators: Hindi na namin sila pinagmumulta, seminar na lang
