The sister-manager of Fliptop rapper Loonie was moved on Thursday from a private hospital to the Makati City Jail after a doctor said that she was “stable medically.”

“As clearly testified to by the attending physician, there is no longer any reason for the continued commitment of accused Idyll Liza Peroramas at [Makati Medical Center],” Judge Ma. Caridad Villamor-Yee of the Makati Regional Trial Court Branch 141 said in her Nov. 26 order.

Peroramas, Loonie and their companions were arrested on Sept. 18 after they allegedly sold 15 packs of high-grade marijuana or “kush” worth P100,000 to a poseur-buyer in the basement of a hotel at Barangay Poblacion, Makati City.

In her testimony before the court, Dr. Cymbelline Santiago said that Peroramas was stable enough to be released and that a team of physicians had prescribed medicine for her ailments: anxiety and beta thalassemia, a blood disorder.

According to the doctor, these were “conditions one can live with” although the patient may require medical attention in the future.

The court noted that Peroramas had never been jailed despite a Sept. 27 order for her commitment to the Makati City Jail.

“For humanitarian reasons,” it allowed her to be committed “in the meantime” at the hospital until her medical condition could be determined.
