I suppose this is a precautionary measure to prevent rebels from sneaking out posing as media members to escape prosecution, but that's just my speculation.
In any case, ABS-CBN is seriously overreacting to their crew being taken into custody, by calling something like this "atrocious". I think these are just standard police procedures, as they are with potentially dangerous individuals (read: soldiers trained to kill and wield weapons). Its not just media personnel being taken into custody, but everyone else who was in close contact with the rebel soldiers. I think this is just to buy the police some time to sort the individuals out and confirm their identities.
EDIT: Fucking curfew from 12-5AM on the NCR, region 4 and 3?! Now Malacaniang is overreacting.
