CEBU CITY – A 22-year-old woman reportedly engaged in illegal drug operations was arrested after yielding a total of PHP10.2 million worth of suspected shabu during a drug sting in Talisay City Friday.
Police said suspect “Kulot” was arrested in a buy-bust in Barangay Bulacao following a tip from a confidential informant.
Col. Epraem Paguyod, chief of Talisay City police, said the suspect joined the illegal trade in 2022 as a small-time pusher before she was entrusted with large volume of drugs by her supplier.
He said the suspect could dispose of up to two kilos of illegal drugs per week, covering the villages of Bulacao, Candulawan, Tabunok, Lagang, San Isidro in Talisay City and some areas in Cebu City.
Her arrest will hopefully lead to the disbandment of the group responsible for the proliferation of illegal drug trade in the city, Paguyod added.
Kulot is now detained at the Talisay Police Station and is facing illegal drug charges. (PNA)
