PDEA nabs HVT with search warrant
THE Philippine Drug Enforcement Agency (PDEA) in Pangasinan apprehended on March 26, one of its high-value targets during the implementation of a search warrant in Binalonan town.
The suspect, identified as Gregorio Manuel Agbayani Jr., also known as “Bong,” was apprehended at his residence on Zamora Street in the Poblacion area.
PDEA-Pangasinan Provincial Officer Rechie Camacho said Agbayani was previously linked to a drug group that had already been dismantled, but former members remain active as individual dealers.
The suspect had previously surrendered to the police during the “tokhang” operations under the Duterte administration.
The PDEA operation conducted in coordination with the Binalonan police yielded approximately 10 grams of suspected methamphetamine, commonly known as shabu, with a street value of ₱28,000, while the standard market price is around ₱68,000.
The suspect is now facing charges for violation of Section 11 of Republic Act 9165, concerning the possession of illegal drugs. (Ahikam Pasion)
