A DOCTOR was arrested for possession of two sachets of shabu at his clinic beside his home in Golden Meadows Subdivision, Barangay Gabi in Cordova town at 3:30 p.m. last Saturday.

PO3 Eleazar Llanes said the 42-year-old doctor identified as Benjamin Degamo is now detained at the Cordova police precinct pending the filing of charges of illegal drugs possession against him in court tomorrow.

Llanes said PO1 Ricky Pepito was in Dr. Degamo’s clinic for treatment of his insomnia when he saw Dr. Degamo allegedly receiving shabu from an unidentified person.

The unidentified person was gone by the time Dr. Degamo was arrested.

Llanes said they learned from drug surrenderers that the doctor orders some people to buy drugs from him. Dr. Degamo refused to comment when asked by reporters.

Cordova police precinct desk officer PO3 Vilma Degamo said the doctor’s wife was shocked to learn about his predicament when she visited him.
