Nasino was among the leaders of progressive organizations who were arrested in Tondo, Manila and slapped with trumped-up charges in November 2019.

Until today, the Supreme Court has not acted upon the petition filed by relatives and supporters of elderly, sick and pregnant political prisoners. The court reasoned out that the judge who is handing the could not travel from Visayas due to the lockdown.
