Sexbomb Sheena clarifies she was not the person arrested for drugs
Sheena Flores de Castro, a former member of the Sexbomb Girls, has taken to Instagram to refute media reports that she was arrested for illegal drugs in the Philippines.
Several media outlets (not GMA News Online) used her pictures for stories about an arrest of a certain Sheena Joana Roño Uypico in San Pablo City, Laguna. Police Colonel Eleazar Matta, provincial director of Laguna Police, identified the suspect as a former member of the popular female dance group.
De Castro, who according to her Instagram bio now works as a flight attendant and is based abroad, posted several entries on her Instagram stories hitting out at news outlets that used her picture in the drug bust story.
When all the blood, sweat, tears and stress become worth it. Here's to graduating tomorrow. ?? ????

In a separate message, De Castro told GMA News Online that she was "shocked" to see news reports claiming that she was nabbed.
"I currently reside in the United States, not in Laguna. I do plan on seeking legal advice regarding this matter," she said. —Dona Magsino/JST, GMA News
