DOJ says Iranian beauty queen barred from entering PH

by

Department of Justice said INTERPOL issued a red notice to an Iranian beauty queen over assault charges, prohibiting her from entering the Philippines.

Justice Undersecretary Markk Perete said a fellow Iranian filed an assault case against Bahareh Zare Bahari. The two allegedly had an altercation that happened here in the Philippines.

The International Police or INTERPOL issues a red notice “for fugitives wanted either for prosecution or to serve a sentence.” The notice informs law enforcement agencies to locate and provisionally arrest such persons.

“While the exclusionary proceedings against her have been terminated, Bahareh remains in Bureau of Immigration’s custody and could not be sent back to Iran as she has filed an application for asylum. Such application, [the] Department of Justice shall resolve in due time,” Perete said in an interview.

The 21-year-old Iranian beauty queen competed in Miss International 2018 in Manila. She was a dentistry student and advocate of freedom, peace, and love. She was also a black-belter in Jujitsu and an expert in Kung-fu Toa, an Iranian kungfu style.

Online gay dating app used in selling illegal drugs, 2 arrested

by

Police arrested two men who used an online gay dating app not just to find sexual partners but also sell illegal drugs. Authorities caught the suspects during a drug buy-bust operation in Project 4, Quezon City.

According to reports, the suspects process their transactions through an online gay dating app.

Through a cop who pretended to be a buyer, authorities found that “chemfum” means having sex while doing drugs. As a result, the police planned the buy-bust operation against a target suspect, who is a male nurse.

Authorities confirmed the illegal transaction at A. Luna Street in Project 4 on Wednesday night.

Police arrested the target suspect and another male who was his shabu supplier.

According to police, the two are using the online gay dating app not only for sex but to sell illegal drugs.

The police also said the suspects use code names for the illegal drugs during transactions.

“May iba salitang salita. Halimbawa droga. Sasabihin nila missile o rocket,” said Police Lt. Colonel Jeffrey Bilaro, Project 4 police station commander.

(They use different names. For example, drugs. They will say missile or rocket.)

Authorities seized four grams of the alleged shabu with a street value of P27,500 from the suspects.

The male nurse admitted that he had been using shabu for two months but denied that he was a drug pusher.
