A 32-year-old man, whom police described as a newly identified drug personality, was arrested on Monday during an anti-illegal drug operation in Barangay Sawang Calero in Cebu City.
Abraham Daclison of Block 4, Barangay Sawang Calero, was caught selling suspected shabu during a buy-bust operation in the barangay on Monday afternoon, said Chief Insp. Allan Rosario, San Nicholas Police Precinct chief, in an interview on Monday.
Confiscated from Daclison’s possession were 49 sachets of suspected shabu weighing 2.5 grams with a Dangerous Drugs Board value of P29,500.
