The Philippines Bureau of Immigration has requested Zayn Malik and Louis Tomlinson of One Direction post bonds worth roughly $5,000 (£3,300) each ahead of a gig in Manila this weekend. They will forfeit the bond if they are caught using or promoting the use of illegal drugs during their visit.

Bureau spokeswoman Elaine Tan said the condition was “intended to protect the public interest should the band members commit any violation during their stay in the Philippines”.

The demand was originally stipulated by an anti-drugs group, who called on the bureau to scrutinise work permits for the band following a video that went viral last year of Malik and Tomlinson purportedly smoking marijuana. In the footage, published by Mail Online, the pair are heard joking about a “joint” as they smoke what looks like a rolled-up cigarette in the back of a car in Peru. During the five-minute video, Tomlinson, who is said to be have been behind the camera, is heard saying: “So here we are, leaving Peru. Joint lit. Happy days!” Malik appears throughout the video.

Following the leak of the video, One Direction’s Liam Payne apologised for his actions: “I love my boys and maybe things have gone a little sideways. I apologise for that,” he posted on Twitter. “We are only in our 20s, and we all do stupid things at this age.”

Malik and Tomlinson must post a 200,000 pesos (£3,000) bond and 20,000 peso (£300) processing fee each through their concert producer for special work permits.

The Filipino group has petitioned a local court to direct government agencies to ensure that the band members are drug-free. It also urged the Philippine Drug Enforcement Agency to send officers to monitor the band.

One Direction are to perform on 21 and 22 March at the seaside SM Mall of Asia Concert Grounds, near Manila.
