Anti-illegal drug agents seized 200 grams of
methamphetamine hydrochloride (shabu) and arrested
four persons involved in the sale of the said illegal
drug during a buy-bust operation on Wednesday in
Quezon City.
Philippine Drug Enforcement Agency (PDEA) Director
Anselmo Avenido Jr. said the operation, led by Police
Chief Inspector Primitivo Bayongan of the PDEA Special
Enforcement Service, took place in front of Mercury
Drugstore on P. Tuazon St., Barangay Tagumpay, Proj.
4, Quezon City at around 3:45 pm the other day.
A poseur-buyer had earlier arranged to buy 200 grams
of shabu for P300,000 at said place from the four
suspects, identified as Ali Sultan, 30; Alandag
Sultan, 28; Alimo Sultan, 22; and, Macmud Sultan, 26,
all residents of Baguio City.
When the transaction was completed and the arrest was
about to be carried out, Avenido said the suspects, on
board a black Toyota Rav 4 with plate number XTS-868,
tried to escape by bumping one of the arresting
officers.
This prompted a back-up cop to shoot the left rear
tire of the vehicle, preventing the suspects from
escaping.
PDEA agents are now preparing to file charges against
the four for violation of Republic Act 9165, or the
Comprehensive Dangerous Drugs Act of 2002. All four
are now detained at the PDEA National Office in Quezon
City./DMS
