00:00More than 30 people were arrested for the start of the Kamelek Gun Ban,
00:04including one official of the government and one soldier.
00:08This and other preparations for the first Monday of the election period
00:11under the leadership of Sandra Aguinaldo.
00:17On the first day of the implementation of the Kamelek Gun Ban yesterday,
00:2131 people were arrested at more than 1,400 checkpoints across the country.
00:27According to the National Election Monitoring Action Center,
00:30which is based in Camp Krame,
00:3226 of them are civilians,
00:34three security guards,
00:36one appointed government official,
00:38and one soldier who was knocked off duty.
00:4180 guns were confiscated by the police.
00:44That's why Kamelek reminds us that
00:46the only thing that can carry guns during the election period
00:49are the gun ban exemptions
00:52and the laws that prohibit the use of guns.
00:56This will be implemented until June 12.
00:58Good faith is not a defense.
01:00That means,
01:02that's why you brought your license,
01:04that's why you have a permit to carry outside of residence,
01:08you don't have an exemption in the Kamelek.
01:10Good faith is not a defense.
01:12Those who will fight
01:14may be charged with fighting
01:16under the Comprehensive Firearms and Ammunition Regulation Act.
01:19They may face imprisonment
01:21for one to six years
01:23and they may not be given a gun license
01:25at any time.
01:27Government officials who will be arrested
01:29may also face administrative charges.
01:31The PNP promises
01:33that they will make sure
01:35that the checkpoints are properly inspected.
01:37They will also install a mobile CCTV camera
01:39in the checkpoints.
01:41Some people are asking,
01:43can the people who are in the vehicle
01:45be arrested while they are being inspected?
01:47That's not a problem
01:49if they think that they will be safer
01:51on the way there.
01:53That's not a problem
01:55because they want to document
01:57when they are being inspected.
01:59The PNP's order is
02:01that they should be wearing body-worn cameras.
02:03Despite the election,
02:05Kamelek showed to the public
02:07the final trusted build
02:09for the automated counting machine
02:11and consolidated canvassing system.
02:13The trusted build is
02:15the conversion of the source code
02:17made by the programmers
02:19to machine-readable code
02:21to ensure that the system is safe
02:23and unharmed.
02:25After this,
02:27the USB was placed in the envelope
02:29and it was signed.
02:31Kamelek plans to place it
02:33in the Central Bank of the Philippines
02:35to ensure that it will not be tampered with.
02:37We have officially turned over
02:39the envelope that contains
02:41the proof
02:43that our CCS
02:45and our ACM
02:47did not see any problems,
02:49or added or whatever.
02:51It means that Kamelek is ready
02:53to use the ACM
02:55and the CCS
02:57consolidation for what we will do
02:59for the mock election that will be held this Saturday.
03:01After the announcement
03:03by Narvacan Mayor Chavit Singson
03:05that he is withdrawing
03:07from running for senator
03:09because of his health condition,
03:11Kamelek said that he should personally
03:13face Kamelek Singson
03:15to formally withdraw.
03:17Singson's name will not be removed
03:19from the envelope
03:21because the printing of the envelope
03:23started on January 6.
03:25For GMA Integrated News,
