P3-M shabu seized in Bacolod raid
BACOLOD CITY: Authorities seized about P3 million worth of shabu from two alleged pushers during a buy-bust in Purok Bangrus, Barangay 1, Bacolod City, on Wednesday night. Operatives of the City Drug Enforcement Unit (CDEU) arrested Rayden Palomero and Rica Mitch. Records showed that Palomero is a newly-identified drug suspect. Recovered were 16 sachets of about 260 grams of shabu, the P5,000 marked money and three deposit slips. The operation came two weeks after the CDEU personnel seized P1.02 million worth of illegal drugs from Myla Velano, 31, during a buy-bust at Charito Heights, Barangay Granada. Velano was also a newly-identified drug suspect and considered a high-value target. Last April 10, the CDEU team also recovered about P3.7 million shabu in a buy-bust at Barangay 33 that saw the arrest of Jeffrey Virgel, 35, of Purok Cheresa, Barangay 27. Police said the suspects were suppliers of the Poja drug group based in this city. Intelligence sources from the Bacolod City Police Office said the illegal drugs that enter the city come from Cebu while those that reach Iloilo province reportedly come from Bacolod City.
