Mother visiting son in jail arrested for sneaking meth

PAGADIAN CITY – A widow visiting her son in jail in Pagadian City in southern Philippines was arrested by guards after she was caught smuggling crystal meth inside the facility, police said.

 

Maj. Shellamie Chang, a regional police spokeswoman, said the 56-year old Flordeliz Castro Panong, who sells duck eggs for a living, tried to sneak into the jail a sachet of the illegal drug worth nearly P2,000.

 

Chang said the woman was visiting her son when guards inspected her things and went through a body search. “Upon checking of the duty guard, one small sachet of suspected shabu was spotted inside the pocket of the suspect that resulted in her arrest,” she said without further elaborating. 

 

It was unknown whether the woman’s son was jailed for drug use or whether Panong was peddling meth in the guise of selling duck eggs. (Mindanao Examiner)
