ZAMBOANGA CITY – Authorities scored anew in the campaign against illegal drugs as they arrested two high-value individuals (HVIs) and seized some PHP3.4 million worth of suspected shabu here on Saturday night.
In a report on Sunday, Col. Narciso Paragas, Police Regional Office-Zamboanga Peninsula Assistant Director for Operations, said the suspects were arrested in a buy-bust around 6:22 p.m. in Barangay Cabatangan.
Paragas identified the two arrested suspects through their aliases Algisno, 34, and Bossing, 36, both residents of Country Homes Subdivision, Barangay Ayala.
"Recovered during the anti-drug operation were two plastic sachets of suspected shabu with a weight of 500 grams," he said.
Also seized from the suspects were the buy-bust money, a mobile phone and a motorcycle.
Paragas said the arrested suspects are detained at the detention facility of the Zamboanga City Police Office pending the filing of charges. They will also be subjected to a drug test.
A day earlier, police agents also arrested two HVIs and seized about PHP13.6 million worth of illegal drugs in Barangay Baliwasan, also in this city. (PNA)
