The condition of actor Mark Anthony Fernandez reportedly got better after he was transferred to Pampanga Provincial Jail, a News To Go report on Wednesday said.

The actor was transferred to Pampanga Provincial Jail on Tuesday from Angeles District Jail.

Fernandez was placed in a prison cell with three other inmates, all facing drug-related charges, GMA News’ Jun Veneracion reported.

While in Angeles District Jail, the actor was detained with 102 other inmates in a cramped prison cell that can only accommodate 20 persons.

Edwin Mangaliman, warden at Pampanga Provincial Jail, said jail authorities decided to put Fernandez in a spacious prison cell to ensure his safety.

The actor, however, will eventually be transferred to a less spacious prison cell.

Meanwhile, Mangaliman advised Fernandez’s family to strictly follow their visitation rules.

The visiting hours on Wednesday will be from 12:30 p.m. to 5 p.m.

Fernandez was arrested in Angeles City, Pampanga on Oct. 3 for alleged possession of a kilo of marijuana.

The actor tested positive for marijuana but negative for shabu. —Erwin Colcol/KG, GMA News
