700,000 worth of illegal drugs seized in Makati, Pasay buy busts

Still part of President Rodrigo Duterte’s relentless war on drugs, a couple of buy bust operations conducted in Pasay and Makati last week have helped authorities nab a total of P700,000 worth of illegal drugs.

About 140 ecstasy tablets were seized from American Jun “Jazz” No, 36, after he sold the illegal substances to police at the parking lot of a restaurant along Seaside Boulevard in Pasay City, on Wednesday, the Philippine Drug Enforcement Agency (PDEA) said in a statement reported by ABS-CBN News.

The ecstasy tablets have an estimated street value of P420,000, PDEA Director-General Isidro Lapeña said.

10 sachets of shabu, on the other hand, worth P280,000 were seized from a suspected drug leader and six others after an entrapment operation in a drug den in Makati, Thursday.

All suspects from the two drug operations will be charged for violating the Comprehensive Dangerous Drugs Act.
