Drug suspect nabbed after tip from parents


A report by his parents helped authorities arrest a drug suspect in Tangos, Navotas City.

According to Emil Sumangil's report on "24 Oras," the Criminal Investigation and Detection Group - Detective and Special Operations Unit (CIDG-DSOU) conducted the operation against the suspect, who was reportedly jailed several times due to his drug involvement.

In a in separate operation in Rodriguez, Rizal, a man wanted for being an alleged drug pusher was also arrested. 

"May information kaming siya ay nagmamanicure noong pinuntahan namin yung pwesto wala siya nung time na yun. Nag-antay kami ng ilang oras. So pagbalik ng tropa nandoon, parang modus niya lang yun siguro pwedeng doon nila gagawin yung kanilang illegal na gawain," said Police Lieutenant Colonel David Toktokan, chief of the CIDG-DSOU said.

(We have information that he is into the manicure business but when we went to the place, he was not there. We waited for a few hours. It looks like that's his modus operandi, maybe he was doing his llegal activities there.) 

A woman who is an alleged drug pusher was also arrested in Galas, Quezon City.  She did not issue any statement. —Sherylin Untalan/LDF, GMA Integrated News
