Dagupan anti-drug campaign nets 3
THE intensified city’s campaign against drug dealers and users resulted recently in the arrest of three users at a local inn in Dagupan City.
Arrested by intelligence operatives and the Police Special Operations Group led by P/Supt. Romeo Caramat, chief of police, were identified as Boyet Ramos, 26; Raymund King, 32, of Barangay Gabon, Calasiao; and Gian Karlo Posedio, a bar owner in Caranglaan District, Dagupan.
The three were arrested after a policeman, posed as a room service waiter who delivered the suspects’ ordered food, caught the three with drug paraphernalia.
Seized from the suspects were several aluminum foil strips, one piece of improvised totter, one roll of aluminum foil, three pieces of lighter, one piece of scissors and one piece of heat-sealed sachet containing suspected shabu weighing more or less one gram.
All three were charged with violation of Republic Act No. 9165 before the City Prosecution Office.
From January 1 to present, the Dagupan City police conducted a total of 11 operations and apprehended 25 suspects, seizing 5,902 grams of shabu and cash money amounting to P1,500 used during the operation.
For the period June 1 to December 31, 2010, Dagupan City Police Station conducted a total of 49 drug related operations, which resulted in the arrest of 57 listed and non-listed drug personalities with a total of 32.125 grams of shabu, 2 kilos and 169 grams of dried marijuana leaves/seeds and assorted shabu paraphernalia.
Forty nine separate cases for violation of RA 9165 were filed in court.
