He underwent a medical check up before he was brought to a detention facility.

He wanted to stay in Camp Crame but he also needed to process his application for the Witness Protection Program (WPP) of the Department of Justice.

Justice Secretary Vitaliano Aguirre says, if Espinosa wants to be under the WPP, he will have to submit an affidavit which will undergo an evaluation.
