COMBINED police and Philippine Drug Enforcement Agency (PDEA) have arrested three people listed in the drug watch lists in a buy-bust operation in Zamboanga del Sur, the police reported.

Senior Superintendent Sofronio Ecaldre, Zamboanga del Sur police director, identified the arrested suspects as the following: Julasbi Dacula, 25; Usman Manabilang, 35; and, Noron Mawalaw, 58.

Ecaldre said the suspects were arrested around 1 p.m. of Thursday in the village of Poblacion, Margosatubig, Zamboanga Del Sur.

Ecaldre said the suspects were arrested after they allegedly sold a sachet of suspect shabu (crystal meth) for P1,000 to an undercover agent.

He said the arresting team confiscated from the suspects possessions 14 sachets of suspected shabu, a weighing scale, two pieces of P500 marked money, and other prohibited drug paraphernalia.
