31 “popular” Filipino celebrities on narco list

Thirty-one celebrities are tagged in the Philippine Drug Enforcement Agency which has yet to be validated.

PDEA Director General Aaron Aquino said in a Philstar report all 31 are currently popular, with majority using party drugs while some peddling illegal drugs.

The list, however, has yet to be validated. But the agency, citing President Rodrigo R. Duterte’s instruction, will prioritize finalizing the list of narco politicians.

The PDEA earlier said two celebrities were alleged clients of Steve Pasion, a major party dealer in Metro Manila who was slain when raided by authorities at his condominium last month.

The agency said it will also release a narco list of judges, prosecutors, and media.
