Quezon City Jail warden Superintendent Emerlito Moral said he received information that contraband were brought inside the jail premises.

"Meron po kasi. Ako po ay nagbiyahe ng apat na inmate na galing dito na pinaghihinalaan namin na sila ang mga nasa likod ng mga kontrabadong nakakapasok dito," Moral said. —Marlly Rome Bondoc/KG, GMA News
