Officials jailed as two Manila municipalities collapse
Two new municipal governments in the Philippines have fallen to treachery by mayors. The Baliuag and San Pedro Macati mayors were jailed in Manila for using office to aid the Filipino army and for carrying incriminating documents between opposing sides. Authorities also report a prominent mayor under surveillance and a released Imus mayor placed back in office amid insurgent sympathy. Manila police patrols intensify as Colonel Smith orders troops to shoot those crossing lines, signaling rising tensions and shrinking leniency.
