Napoles brought to Camp Crame for check-up

Alleged pork barrel scam mastermind Janet Lim Napoles arrived at the Philippine National Police General Hospital in Camp Crame Wednesday morning to undergo medical check-up. Napoles, accused of setting up fake non-government organizations where lawmakers allegedly funneled their pork barrel funds in order to get kickbacks, was earlier found to have an ovarian tumor. Napoles had asked the court to allow her to undergo medical tests and check-up at St. Luke's Medical Center in Bonifacio Global City because these procedures cannot be done at Fort Sto. Domingo. However, Makati RTC Branch 150 Judge Elmo Alameda, citing the testimony of Senior Inspector Michael Angelo Luna, said the hospital in Camp Crame has the facilities to perform the transvaginal ultrasound.
