Three foreign nationals tagged as newly identified high-value individuals were nabbed in a buy-bust operation in Parañaque City early Tuesday morning.
The operation was executed around 1:43 a.m. at Room 3310 of the SBM Condotel on J. Gabriel Street in Baclaran by the District Drug Enforcement Unit-Southern Police District (DDEU-SPD) with the Parañaque City Police Station Sub-Station 1.
The suspects, identified only by their alias were Korean national “Hoon,” 46, unemployed; Indonesian “Raptor,” 31, unemployed; and another Korean “Japyo,” 34, unemployed.
Authorities said Hoon facilitated the sale of illegal drugs, while Raptor and Japyo were found in possession of the contraband.
Sized from the group were 100 grams of shabu with an estimated street value of P680,000 and 20 pieces of suspected ecstasy tablets worth P34,000. The three face charges for violating the Comprehensive Dangerous Drugs Act with Hoon for illegal sale and the two others for illegal possession.
They are currently at the DDEU-SPD pending the filing of charges.
