CAMP OLIVAS, Pampanga— The Central Luzon police based here reported yesterday its forces have busted a group of illegal drug traffickers allegedly distributing shabu in this province and Quezon City.
Police Capt. Vladimir Canape, officer-in-charge of the Regional Drug Enforcement Unit here, said the arrests were made during a drug-bust along a bypass road in Barangay Sindalan, City of San Fernando earlier this week.
He identified the suspects as Acmali Francisco, alias Balbas; Mohammer Hadji Ganda, and Jalal Mauyag, all residents of Sangandaan, Quezon City; and Michael Evance Villacorta, alias Kim, of Barangay San Isidro in San Fernando.
More than 810 grams of shabu were seized by the police from the suspects’ possession. Also found inside the vehicles were illegal drug paraphernalia, marked money, a .45 pistol, a cellular phone, and a sling bag.
Canape said the suspects are on the list of high-value police targets due to their alleged involvement in illegal drugs trade in Pampanga and the rest of Central Luzon.
“The suspects are considered notorious drug peddlers,” he said.
