Shabu worth P3.4 million seized in Batangas port
Philippine Drug Enforcement Agency (PDEA) agents and the Philippine Coast Guard (PCG) seized 500 grams of suspected shabu with an estimated value of P3.4 million at Batangas Port.
The operation on April 10 was prompted by a report that a passenger of MV BB Coron, bound for Abra de Ilog Port in Occidental Mindoro, was believed to be in possession of illegal drugs.
K9 units and a substance analyzer indicated the presence of methamphetamine hydrochloride in a red paper bag.
A 36-year-old female resident of Naujan, Oriental Mindoro was arrested during the operation.
She was informed of her constitutional rights before being taken into custody by PDEA-Batangas Provincial Office along with the confiscated substance.
