Criminal Investigation and Detection Group - National Capital Region chief Police Colonel John Guaigui said Estrada was allowed to wear his own clothes during his booking process because none of the available detainee uniforms fit him. Guaigui said authorities were under time pressure to bring Estrada to the Sandiganbayan after receiving instructions from the anti-graft court.

“Walang magkasya na damit sa kanya. We have lahat na ng damit na available sa amin, pinasukat namin, hindi talaga magkasya doon sa build ng katawan niya,” Guiagui told reporters in an interview. “Kaya during the urgency, hindi naman na kami makakuha pa ng ibang sizes during that time ay kailangan nang i-deliver namin sa Sandiganbayan,” he added.
