Family visited Sarah Discaya in jail a day after Christmas, says lawyer
Controversial contractor Sarah Discaya, currently detained at Lapu-Lapu City Jail for graft and malversation charges, was visited by her family on December 26, a day after Christmas.
Her lawyer stated that Discaya's quarantine ended on December 26, after which she became entitled to a regular visiting schedule.
While in quarantine, only her legal counsel was allowed to visit, with family visits limited to e-calls on Christmas Day.
Discaya, along with eight former Department of Public Works and Highways officials from Davao Occidental, was committed to the jail on December 19 following arrest warrants.
She is currently detained in the female dormitory of the Lapu-Lapu City Jail.
Discaya had previously filed a motion requesting to remain under the custody of the National Bureau of Investigation (NBI), but the BJMP has since submitted its comment to this petition.
