A lawmaker part of the progressive Makabayan bloc raised on Monday, Oct. 17, what she called “special treatment” in handling the case of Justice Secretary Jesus Crispin “Boying” Remulla’s son over drug possession.
House Deputy Minority leader and ACT Teachers Party-list Rep. France Castro claimed Juanito Jose Diaz Remulla III was still given special treatment even as the Justice secretary said he will not intervene in nor influence in his son’s case.
Castro questioned the delayed public announcement of Juanito’s arrest by the Philippine Drug Enforcement Agency .“This started with the almost two day delay of publicizing the arrest of Juanito Remulla’s arrest in Las Piñas City. His father who was in Geneva was even among the first to know the arrest. What transpired during the almost two day delay,” she asked.
The House Deputy Minority leader lamented the “protection” of Remulla’s son from being subjected to a mandatory drug test.
