Two drug dens quashed in Dagupan
SIX illegal drug operators considered as high-value targets were apprehended in Dagupan City during a joint operation by the Philippine National Police (PNP) and the Philippine Drug Enforcement Agency (PDEA).
The operation, dubbed Oplan Gandara, also led to the dismantling of a notorious drug den in Tondaligan, Barangay Bonuan Gueset.
The first part of the operation took place in Tondaligan where authorities raided the residence of 27-year-old Ella Mae Rivo Astrero and caught her in possession of 18 packets of suspected shabu valued at P33,800.
Law enforcers then executed a search warrant at a suspected drug den in the same area where five more suspects, all residents of Bonuan Gueset, identified as Anthony Sanchez Tuates, aka Ranny/Ombae, 50; Jomar Celeboza Mola, 41; Rene Orlanda De Guzman, 43; Alfredo Mamatsiya Cabubas, aka Bulldog, 43; and Jessie Jhon Ilagan Medio, 29 were arrested.
During the raid on the drug den, authorities seized 10 plastic sachets of suspected shabu, with a total weight of approximately six grams and an estimated value of P 15,600.
More packets containing suspected shabu and drug paraphernalia were also confiscated.
The six have been charged with multiple violations of Republic Act 9165, including manufacturing, trafficking, and possession of illegal drugs, as well as the maintenance of drug dens. (Ahikam Pasion)
