WHEN some lawmakers and netizens asked why the son of Justice Secretary Jesus Crispin "Boying" Remulla was not subjected to mandatory drug testing following his arrest for possession of high-grade marijuana, the spokesman for the Philippine Drug Enforcement Agency (PDEA) said in an interview that it "will not be material" to the charges he is facing.

Derrick Carreon, the PDEA spokesman, added that 38-year-old Juanito Jose Diaz Remulla 3rd had refused to undergo drug testing "on the advice of his lawyer." He said PDEA would not insist that Remulla undergo drug testing after his lawyer "immediately intervened."
