When they had to pay the agent who claimed to be the buyer, the operation captured four men who were inside the car. The National Capital Region Police Office (NCRPO) reported that 500 pieces of Molly or capsulized ecstasy were seized.
Aside from that, 100 MDMA or ecstasy tablets were seized, with a total estimated value of nearly P2 million. This is part of a follow-up operation, according to NCRPO Regional Director Maj. Gen. Vicente Danao Jr., aimed at tracking down the supply chain of party drugs in Metro Manila that was sued by those they previously detained.
Meanwhile, during a buy bust operation, PDEA officers detained a 33-year-old man known as Alyas “Carabao.” To avoid being caught, the perpetrator conceals suspected illicit drugs inside a sachet of a common artificial seasoning.
Fortunately, police were able to seize 10 grams of illicit drugs from the perpetrator, who was on the province’s top priority list. In addition, the perpetrator will be charged with violating the Comprehensive Dangerous Drugs Act of 2002.
