ILOILO – Two separate antidrug operations of the police arrested five drug suspects in the municipalities of Concepcion and Leganes.
In Barangay Poblacion, Concepcion, 29-year-old Richard Pendon yielded three sachets of shabu around 11:50 a.m. on Nov. 4.
Pendon was a resident of Sitio Tuburan, Barangay Poblacion. He initially sold a sachet to an undercover police officer.
Two more sachets were seized from him.
A few hours after, four drug suspects were collared in Leganes. They were James Muega, 20, of Barangay MV Hechanova, Leganes; Igmedio Roxas, 20, and Jamer Toreno, 18, both of Barangay Napnud, Leganes; and a 14-year-old lad from Barangay Poblacion.
Policemen were able to recover from the four suspects six sachets of shabu.
The suspects were detained at the Leganes police station.
All the suspects face charges for illegal drug possession and peddling – activities prohibited under the Comprehensive Dangerous Drugs Act of 2002./PN
