The National Capital Region Police Office (NCRPO) said Sunday that it is validating a list of showbiz personalities allegedly involved in illegal drugs.
The names on the list, according to Chief Superintendent Oscar Albayalde, are based on information from several arrested drug suspects.
Albayalde said all of the names on the list are still subject for verification. He added that the public announcement of the names would depend on the decision of either President Rodrigo Duterte or Philippine National Police chief Director General Ronald dela Rosa.
Several celebreties have earlier submitted urine samples and underwent voluntary drug tests. This was confirmed by Albayalde.
The Chief Superintendent urged media networks to coordinate with the PNP in conducting drug tests for their employees and artists pursuant to the Duterte administration's war against illegal drugs.
The District Anti-Illegal Division of the Southern Police District said in an earlier report that FM radio host Karen Bordador and her boyfriend, suspected drug pusher Emilio Lim, submitted a list of their clients which includes actors, singers and models.
