Avi Siwa, an actress and a model, was arrested by the National Bureau of Investigation (NBI) on Friday.
In a report by ABS-CBN News (authored by Niko Baua), Siwa was arrested for allegedly selling COVID-19 test kits online without a license from the Food and Drug Administration.
The FDA’s policy requires COVID-19 test kits to be acquired only through prescription from doctors, hospitals or drug stores. The only ones who can administer the said tests are physicians and trained health professionals.
Aside from allegedly selling COVID-19 test kits without a license, Siwa was also charged with an estafa case for allegedly not delivering the rice she sold to her customers.
Siwa denied the accusations against her and has promised to clear her name.

Siwa is not the only celebrity who has been arrested by the NBI recently, as YouTube star Francis Leo Marcos was also arrested for several alleged violations, as reported earlier by KAMI.
Avi Siwa made headlines in 2017 due to her rivalry with Vina Morales. She filed libel, slander by deed, grave threats, and Violation of R.A. 7610 or the Anti-Violence against Women and Children (VAWC) against Morales for allegedly bullying her, humiliating her in front of her friends and saying negative things about her second pregnancy.
