The New Bilibid Prison in Muntinlupa

The Philippine National Police, Philippine Drug Enforcement Agency, National Bureau of Investigation led by Justice secretary Leila de Lima launched a series of raids on the New Bilibid Prison on December 15, 19, and 22 2014 targeting drug lords allegedly operating inside the prison and to seize contrabands reportedly in possession of some of the prison's inmates. Prohibited items were found on the kubols or huts of high-profile inmates. Officials handling the New Bilibid Prison were relieved on December 19 following an order from Ombudsman Conchita Carpio-Morales for an investigation on officials of the Bureau of Corrections. Bureau of Corrections chief, Franklin Bucayu, refused calls to resign following the findings of the raid.[1][2][3][4]
