Operatives of the Philippine Drug Enforcement Agency (PDEA) and Philippine National Police (PNP) arrested four suspects in a buy-bust operation that netted P3.4 million worth of shabu in Paranaque City on Wednesday.
PDEA spokesperson Derrick Arnold Carreon in a report yesterday identified the suspects as JC Andre Beltran, Fahad Sakip Malik, Liza Ocampo, and John Robert Vicente.
The suspects were nabbed in Quirino Avenue, Barangay San Dionisio at around 5:10 p.m. where 500 grams of shabu, one cellular phone and buy-bust money were confiscated.
PDEA agent Jeffrey Baguiddudol said that the suspects were nabbed after anti-narcotics operatives tailed them and conducted a strict surveillance for one week.
The suspects remained mum when authorities inquired who supplies them with illegal drugs.
They are now facing charges for violation of Section 5 in relation to Section 26 Article II of Republic Act 9165.
