BACOLOD City – An estimated P408,000 worth of suspected shabu was seized from three persons in a buy-bust led by the Philippine Drug Enforcement Agency (PDEA)-6 Special Enforcement Team (SET) at Barangay 26 here last Thursday.
PDEA identified the suspects as Gian Carlo Natavio, Georgie Garces, and Benjamin Rosales.
Around 60 grams of suspected shabu was confiscated by PDEA operatives from the trio.
