The Philippine Drug Enforcement Agency (PDEA) said on Friday, Jan. 6, that it respects the decision of the Las Piñas court that acquitted the son of Justice Secretary Jesus Crispin Remulla of illegal drug charges.
The Philippine Drug Enforcement Agency said on Friday, Jan. 6, that it respects the decision of the Las Piñas court that acquitted the son of Justice Secretary Jesus Crispin Remulla of illegal drug charges.
It added that there was no clear evidence that Remulla had “freely, consciously, and with full knowledge possessed the alleged seized illegal drugs.” “Unfortunately, apart from showing that the package or parcel was handed to the accused, the prosecution did not present other evidence to show that the former knew that it contained marijuana,” it said.
“As to the effect, however, it has put into question the identity, integrity, and evidentiary value of the purportedly seized dangerous drugs. This is especially true when there is nothing in the records that would show how the parcel… was handled, stored, and preserved from the time it was discovered on Sep. 28,” it said.
Atty. Pearlito Campanilla, one of Juanito’s counsels, said the court acquitted his client due to issues with the chain of custody of the evidence. The legal counsel noted that his client also provided an ID with the name Juanito Jose Remulla III when receiving the package, while the shipping form contained the name Jose Juanito Remulla.
