As part of due process, a Notice to Explain will be sent to them within 24 hours.
Canong said the owners and managers of the bars were blaming their personnel.
“Akig ang ila manager kag tag-iya bangud sang paglapas sang ila tinawo. May iban sila nga staff kag personnel nga ginpasugtan ang kilala nila nga makasulod kag makainom ala-una sang kaagahon,” said Canong.
