MANILA, Philippines - Two traffic enforcers of the Metropolitan Manila Development Authority (MMDA) filed complaints before the Quezon City Prosecutors Office against a drunk lawyer who allegedly assaulted them along the northbound lane of EDSA near the Robinsons Galeria mall in Baramgay Ugong Norte before midnight last Tuesday.
According to a report by the Eastwood Police Station (PS-12) of the Quezon City Police District Office, at about 11:43 p.m.s on Tuesday, lawyer Bettina Zamora, 30, a resident of Corinthian Garden, was driving her black BMW sedan (ZLJ-468) while under the influence of liquor when she reportedly had a heated argument with another motorist.
Zamora is a senior associate at the Kapunan, Garcia and Castillo Law Offices. The law firm formerly represented businesswoman Janet Lim-Napoles in the illegal detention case lodged against her by her cousin Benhur Luy before the Makati Regional Trial Court.
Police said MMDA enforcers Saturnino Embuscado and Michael Arcilla then arrived at the scene to investigate the commotion as it is already causing traffic to slow down.
According to police, when Embuscado and Arcilla arrived at the scene, a drunk Zamora allegedly immediately hurled invectives at them. The MMDA enforcers then radioed for police assistance. Four police officers from the Eastwood Police Station led by SPO2 Ritchie Madrid then arrived aboard a patrol car.
