3 Arrested, P1-M Worth of Drugs Nabbed
Over P1 million worth of drugs recovered while two were arrested—one of which is a minor in a buy bust operation in Sitio Felina Village, Pluto St. Barangay Tisa, Cebu City last October 22, 2018.
Around 8 P.M., Pardo Police Station 7 conducted the buy-bust operation and arrested the target Jerard Lapingcao Villagonzalo, 18.
Villagonzalo yielded five small plastic sachets, nine medium sachets and one knot-tied plastic sachet suspected to contain shabu.
Meanwhile, Cristina Cuenco Fernandez, 23; and a 16-year-old boy were also arrested for obstruction of justice as they allegedly trying to stop the officers in arresting Villagonzalo.
The recovered contraband had a estimated Dangerous Drugs Board value of P1,100,000.
Villagonzalo will face charges in violation of the Comprehensive Dangerous Drugs Act of 2002 while the minor was forwarded to the Department of Social Welfare and Development for proper legal action. (Aljun S. Cainghog)
