Recently in the city of Parañaque, a buy-bust operation successfully organized by the local police resulted in the arrest of a high-value suspect and the seizure of illegal drugs worth more than half a million Pesos, according to a Manila Bulletin news report.
To put things in perspective, posted below is an excerpt from the news report of Manila Bulletin. Some parts in boldface…
Police arrested a suspected high-value drug personality and seized P544,000 worth of shabu during a buy-bust operation in Parañaque City on Wednesday, June 19.
The Southern Police District (SPD) said the suspect, identified only as Jose, 21, was arrested at around 9:00 p.m. in Barangay San Isidro by operatives of the Station Drug Enforcement Unit (SDEU).
Police said the operation stemmed from reports by concerned residents about the suspect’s alleged involvement in illegal drug activities.
Confiscated from the suspect were 80 grams of shabu valued at P544,000, a black backpack, a cellphone used in illegal drug transactions, and P1,000 in marked buy-bust money. The seized drugs were turned over to the SPD Forensic Unit for laboratory examination.
Let me end this post by asking you readers: What do you think about this recent development? If you are a resident of Parañaque, do you think that the smuggling and selling of illegal drugs in the city will get worse over the next six months?
