A "Balitanghali" report on Tuesday said the results of the drug test and the vehicle inspection will be used against Fernandez, son of actress Alma Moreno and the late actor Rudy Fernandez.
In an interview with Veneracion on "Balitanghali," the secretary of Moreno said the actress cannot visit her son yet due to hypertension.
The secretary also said no family member has visited the actor yet.
However, Veneracion, on Twitter, posted a photo of Fernandez being visited by his reported partner.
