The path for former Bamban, Tarlac Mayor Alice Guo’s detention was officially confirmed today, as she successfully completed the mandatory medical examination required for her transfer to the Correctional Institution for Women (CIW).
The completion of the physical and psychological assessment gives the final green light for her immediate movement from her current holding facility to the national penitentiary for women in Mandaluyong City.
This procedural step follows the court’s commitment order related to the non-bailable charges she is facing, which are tied to her alleged role in illicit Philippine Offshore Gaming Operations (POGO) activities.
A spokesperson for the Bureau of Jail Management and Penology (BJMP) confirmed the results, stating that the required health clearance was secured, ensuring the facility is prepared to receive the high-profile detainee.
Authorities are now finalizing the logistical details for the transfer, which is expected to occur in the coming days, marking a major development in the ongoing investigation that has captivated the public.
