Women, barangay councilors arrested for violating Pangasinan lockdown
Two women were arrested on Wednesday, April 15, for attempting to bribe police to enter Pangasinan province under lockdown.
The women and their driver from Agoo, La Union, were not allowed entry as they did not have travel passes authorizing them to enter the extreme enhanced community quarantine (EECQ) area.
Separately, two barangay councilors from Batangcaoa in Urbiztondo town were arrested on Tuesday for smuggling seven individuals from Metro Manila into Pangasinan under EECQ.
The suspects attempted to help their townmates return home but violated the law by facilitating unauthorized entry into the province.
