A 36-year-old policeman was among the 10 people arrested by authorities on Sunday night at a drug den in Barangay Payatas, Quezon City. PO1 Christopher Guevarra, a member of the Philippine National Police Maritime Group, tested positive for drugs after the Quezon City Police District (QCPD) Crime Laboratory conducted a confirmatory test. Guillermo Eleazar, QCPD director, told the Inquirer that Guevarra had admitted to using drugs even before he became a policeman in 2009. ADVERTISEMENTAside from the criminal charges of possession of illegal drugs and visiting a drug den, Guevarra will also face an administrative case for grave misconduct. The boy was the son of the target of the police operation, Norman Chua, who also owned the house which doubled as a drug den.
