Loonie, two others indicted on drug charges; no bail recommended

Rap star Loonie, real name Marlon Peroramas, and two others have been indicted in connection with their alleged involvement in drug dealing.


The Makati City Prosecutor's Office recommended that no bail be set for the provisional liberty of the rapper, his sister Idyll Liza Peroramas and David Rizon.

The complaint for violation of Section 5 of the Republic Act 9165 against their fellow respondents Ivan Agustin and Albert Alvarez has been set for preliminary investigation.

Agustin was indicted for violation of Section 13 and a P3,000 bail was set.

Alvarez, the driver of the group when they arrested, was ordered released from custody of the law until he is detained for other unlawful causes.

Loonie, his sister, Rizon, Agustin, and Alvarez were nabbed in a buy-bust operation at the parking basement of a hotel in Barangay Poblacion, Makati last week.

Police seized 15 sachets of suspected kush or high-grade marijuana from the group.

Loonie and his fellow drug suspects has petitioned for a writ of habeas corpus, which the Makati Regional Trial Court dismissed on Monday. —Joahna Casilao/NB, GMA News
