Recently in the city of Parañaque, two persons were apprehended as a result of a successful buy-bust operation organized by the police over illegal substances worth more than P400,000, according to a Manila Bulletin news report.
To put things in perspective, posted below is an excerpt from the Manila Bulletin news report. Some parts in boldface…
Authorities from the Parañaque City Police Station Drug Enforcement Unit (SDEU) arrested two suspected drug pushers during a buy-bust operation on January 14.
The Southern Police District (SPD) identified the suspects as Abet, 38, a housekeeper, and Rol, 28. They were apprehended at around 7:35 p.m. at Centro Purok 7, Barangay Moonwalk, Parañaque City.
Police said operatives of the Parañaque City Police SDEU conducted the operation after Abet allegedly sold shabu to an undercover police officer.
Seized from Abet were five grams of shabu and two additional heat-sealed transparent sachets containing about 50 grams, with an estimated value of P374,000, including boodle money.
Meanwhile, operatives recovered from Rol approximately five grams of shabu worth P34,000.
In total, authorities confiscated about 60 grams of shabu valued at P408,000.
The suspects were brought to the Parañaque City Police SDEU custodial facility and were charged with violations of Sections 5 and 11, Article II of Republic Act 9165 or the Comprehensive Dangerous Drugs Act of 2002.
