PDEA Region IV-A agents confiscated 24 sachets of alleged shabu from suspect Sarifi Uday Dumama, according to police report.

After an informant tipped off authorities about Dumama, PDEA agents set up a transaction with him in a mall in Marina Bay street where they were able to buy drugs from the suspect.

Dumama was immediately arrested at 10:30 a.m. after receiving the money.

The suspect said he was just asked to bring the items in exchange of P10,000.
