Manila barangay to be placed under total lockdown after videos of boxing, bingo surface
Manila Mayor Isko Moreno will place Barangay 20, covering Parola Compound and Isla Putting Bato, under a 24-hour total lockdown starting 8 p.m. on Tuesday, April 14, 2020.
The lockdown was ordered after videos surfaced showing residents participating in an illegal boxing match and a bingo activity, violating the enhanced community quarantine protocols.
The executive order aims to allow the city government to conduct disease surveillance, verification, testing, and risk assessment in the densely populated area.
During the lockdown, all residents are required to stay inside their homes, with quarantine passes being voided.
Manila Police District Station 2 commander Police Lieutenant Colonel Magno Labunos Gallora Jr. stated that 150 personnel will be deployed to monitor the area, with gates at Parola Compound being closed and manned by police.
Violators caught breaching quarantine protocols will be arrested.
