A TEAM of operatives coming from various law enforcement agencies confiscated some P1.656 billion worth of shabu during a buy bust operation in Dasmariñas City, Cavite.
Arrested were Wilfredo Blanco and Megan Lemon Pedroro, both residents of Montalban, Rizal, in the operation conducted in a parking lot of in Barangay Salitran 2 along Aguinaldo Highway.
Seized were 240 kilos of the suspected shabu and the van reportedly being used by the suspects in the transportation of the illegal drugs.
The team is made up of combined elements from the Philippine National Police (PNP), the Philippine Drug Enforcement Agency (PDEA), the National Intelligence Coordinating Agency (NICA), the Bureau of Customs (BOC) and the Armed Forces of the Philippines (AFP).
PNP Chief, Police General Guillermo Eleazar lauded the personnel of the law enforcement agencies involved, saying the operation prevented the illegal drugs from being used especially by the youth.
“Proper coordination between our intelligence and law-enforcement agencies again bore fruit with the seizure of P1.6 billion worth of shabu in an operation in Dasmariñas, Cavite,” said PGen Eleazar.
“I commend all the PNP personnel who took part in this operation as we take this as another motivation to work further in ensuring the safety of our kababayan, especially our youth, against the threat of illegal drugs,” he added.
The operation in Dasmariñas City was part of the series of anti-drug operations that started with the confiscation of some P3.4 billion worth of shabu in Zambales and more than P1 billion worth more of shabu in the follow-up operations in Bataan and Cavite.
The three separate operations last month were based on the coordination among the PNP, BOC, NICA and the AFP with the PDEA as the lead agency.
