Community service may be a penalty imposed on quarantine violators, the Philippine National Police chief says.
[Translation: That's why we're encouraging LGUs to enact different ordinances, so that people can just do community service, or have a fine as punishment. So that they won't need to be transferred to regular detention cells.]
Over 130,000 quarantine violators have been reported nationwide amid lockdowns, according to recent police data. Gamboa said violators may be charged under a number of laws, including the Bayanihan to Heal as One Act.
