SIQUIJOR, (March 13) -- The Bureau of Jail and Management Penology (BJMP)-Siquijor district installed Inspector Angelito Almodiel Jr. as its new jail warden recently.

Almodiel, a Siquijodnon and a native of Enrique Villanueva, Siquijor replaced Inspector Rolly Bandeling effective February 2012.

He said he is happy with his current post and assignment. “I would work hard to give good service to the prisoners here,” he said.

Almodiel, who has been in the service for 19 years said his administration aims to develop the inmates of Siquijor District Jail through livelihood and moral recovery programs.

He said that enlightening the lives of the prisoners is the best way of giving them hope after having walked astray from the right path of life.

The new warden is also a Eucharistic Minister (Lay Minister), the reason he wanted prisoners to improve their spiritual lives. (mbcn/RAC/PIA-Siquijor)
