Police arrested three drug suspects, including a woman, after they were caught with P1.32 million worth of shabu and marijuana in separate buy-bust operations in Muntinlupa and Taguig on Saturday, May 9. 


In Barangay New Lower Bicutan, Taguig police arrested a female suspect identified as alias Babes, 49, tagged as a street-level individual, for violation of the Comprehensive Dangerous Drugs Act of 2002.


During the operation at a covered court, the police recovered 27.8 grams of shabu worth P189,040 from the suspect, buy-bust money, and boodle money.


She is facing a complaint for violation of Sections 5 (sale) and 11 (possession of dangerous drugs) of Republic Act 9165 (Comprehensive Dangerous Drugs Act of 2002).
