Singer Jay-R Siaboc, best known for his stint on "Pinoy Dream Academy," surrendered to local authorities in Toledo City, Cebu on Tuesday in the face of the government's intensified campaign against illegal drugs, police said.
Toledo City police chief Samuel Mina confirmed to ABS-CBN News that Siaboc, together with his cousin, turned himself in at their station.
According to Mina, Siaboc was part of the more than 200 drug users and pushers who surrendered to them on Tuesday. Mina added that Siaboc decided to surrender after hearing allegations on social media that he is a notorious drug pusher.
He denied the allegations of selling drugs but confessed about his addiction to it. Siaboc narrated that because of the nature of his job as a band singer travelling from one place to another, he was exposed to illegal drugs.
Together with the other users and pushers who surrendered in the city, Siaboc signed an oath to stop using illegal drugs.
Siaboc, best known for his song "Kada Uli Hilot," was one of the scholars of the 2006 talent search "Pinoy Dream Academy," where he finished runner-up to winner, Yeng Constantino.
Since the first day of the anti-drug campaign "Oplan Tokhang," Toledo Police operatives were able to record 528 surenderees.

ReplyDeleteps. yung mga napapatay ng mga civillians (kuno) e gawa yun ng mga druglords para di na kumanta at ituro sila. again, i should know, my cousin is on the list.
agree. ganyan din dito sa amin pinapatay sila ng handler nila kasi pg gustong sumuko, inuunahan na nila
DeleteKung saan-saan nagreraid ang mga pulis eh sa showbiz lang sobrabg dani ng mahuhuli.
ReplyDeleteEh di pangalanan mo if sino-sino sila, kung may Alam ka mag bigay ka ng tip sa Pulis dahil seryoso ang Presidente na sugpuin. Mahirap rin kasi hanash ka ng hanash wala ka naman maituro. Kung basta nalang raid ang mga Pulis malamang mga fantard ng sinasabi mong artista aangal na naman ng human rights. Ginagawa na nga ng Presidente at kapulisan ang lahat para masugpo na ang mga salot ng lipunan Ikaw ito angal parin nd angal. Paano uunlad ang bansa natin kung ganun ang pananaw mo?

ReplyDeleteYan kase may pwesto na sa showbiz pinabayaan pa. Nagpakasira sa babae. Sino nga ung ex nya na kabatch ren nila sa pinoy dream academy
ReplyDeleteirish
Deletekelan kaya may mahuhuli na mga mayayamang users? nakakapagtaka na wala kahit isa. di kapani-paniwala. kaya tama yung sabi ng tatay ng isang nahuli, di pantay ang pag-aresto.
ReplyDeleteagree!
Deleteakala ko ako lang ang nakapansin. bakit nga ba?
DeleteKase nga show lang ang lahat... kase karamihan sa mga tao di nagiisip... nadadala sa isang maliit na palabas.
DeleteDami kayang rich na drug user... pero taong mahihirap lang ang pinapatay... kase, wala silang pera. Ika nga... dispensable actors. YAN BA ANG JUSTICE NA TINATAWAG NINYO? NAMIMILI NANG BUHAY NA KIKITILIN, BASE SA ANTAS NANG BUHAY?
Hinhintay ko mga artista naman...
ReplyDeleteMay mga artista kayang aamin din sa paggamit ng illegal drugs?
ReplyDeleteAwww. Opportunity na pinabayaan nya.. Mahirap daw pakisamahan to eh.
ReplyDelete- nakiki tsismis lng

ReplyDelete"walang saysay ang sinasabi
Deletekaya hindi mo mawari

ReplyDeleteThe police won't touch him because he's vaguely famous! But that's not the case for the others who surrendered . Somehow they always managed to grab the arresting officers gun in the middle of the night and gets shot like pigs!
