P102 million worth of shabu seized in Lapu-Lapu, Cebu

Authorities seized about P102 million worth of suspected shabu and arrested two high value targets in a buy bust operation in Lapu-Lapu City, Cebu, according to the Philippine National Police (PNP).

In a statement, PNP officer-in-charge Police Lieutenant General Vicente Danao Jr. identified the suspects as Eric Bacalso Felisilda, 46 and Neil James Plaza Vallesquina, 28.

Seized were about 15 kilograms of suspected shabu with an estimated street value of about P102,000,000, one sack bag, one backpack, two paper bags, one cellphone, one ID card, and buy bust money.

"I congratulate our drug enforcement operatives for another big accomplishment," Danao said.

"This only signifies that our PNP operations will be more aggressive on illegal drugs, especially against high-value personalities and syndicates. Your PNP will not stop until the last person in the drug list is put to jail," he added.

The suspects will face charges for violation of Republic Act 9165 or the Comprehensive Dangerous Drugs Act.—LDF, GMA News
