The prosecution Tuesday indicted singer MC Mong on charges for intentionally having healthy teeth extracted to dodge mandatory military service.

The indictment came after a special nine-member committee comprised of citizens representing all walks of society determined to prosecute the entertainer. MC Mong has been accused of having pulled out at least three healthy teeth in a period of three years from 2004 to get disqualified for the draft.

He has denied allegations that he intentionally pulled out healthy teeth.
