Former First Gentleman Jose Miguel Arroyo went to Germany on Sunday night for a medical checkup, more than two weeks after the Department of Justice (DOJ) removed him from its watch list.

Arroyo left aboard a Cathay Pacific CX-902 flight en route to Munich via Hong Kong, radio dzBB reported early on Monday.

A separate report on Bombo Radyo said Arroyo is expected to return to the Philippines after a week.

On September 1, the DOJ removed Arroyo from its watch list after the Senate Blue Ribbon Committee said it will no longer summon him to testify on the P104.9-million worth of used helicopters sold as brand new to the Philippine National Police in 2009.

Arroyo had also been linked to several irregularities during the term of his wife, former President and incumbent Pampanga Rep. Gloria Arroyo. - VVP, GMA News
