BOWED HEADS. These Korean tourists accused of engaging in a sex tour cover their faces when presented to the media at the National Bureau of Investigation in Central Visayas (NBI-7) office in Cebu City following their arrest on Saturday, March 4, 2017.

In response to the order from Camp Crame, the PRO-7 will no longer present crime suspects to the media.

Chief Supt. Debold Sinas, PRO-7 director, said they have to follow orders from their higher-ups.

PNP chief Director General Oscar Albayalde decided to no longer present crime suspects in respect to human rights especially that suspects are not yet convicted of any crime.

The directive came after the police chief’s meeting with Manila Archbishop Luis Antonio Cardinal Tagle.
