More than half-a-million-peso worth of suspected shabu were confiscated in separate buy-bust operations in Lapu-Lapu, Mandaue and Talisay cities and in Liloan town in northern Cebu last Saturday.

Police also arrested 10 persons from the separate anti-illegal drug operations.

Lapu-Lapu City police got the biggest haul in their Barangay Pajac operation where they seized several packs of suspected shabu estimated to be worth P607,000.

They also arrested Frederick Sipalay and Mark Anthony Suico during one of two buy-bust operations they conducted.

In a separate operation in Barangay Babag that day, Lapu-Lapu police also arrested Manuel Dungog and confiscated several packs of illegal drugs worth P11,210.

In Mandaue City, police also arrested Gualberto Galnitan Jr., 22, and Jelon Louie Febria, 18, who are both from Barangay Guadalupe, Cebu City at a checkpoint in Barangay Subangdaku.

Police recovered a .357 revolver with four bullets and 11 sachets believed to contain shabu.

In Barangay Bakante, Liloan town, police arrested Jeremy Baguio, 32, and a minor during a buy-bust operation.

Police moved in after Baguio handed to an undercover police officer illegal drugs worth P200. The minor was caught with a tin foil, which is used for sniffing shabu in his possession.

Baguio was detained while the minor was turned over to social workers.

In a separate operation in Talisay City, police arrested three men and confiscated several packs of suspected shabu worth at least P70,000.

Elden Nadera, 29; Elederio Nadera, 33; and Emmanuel Nadera, 36, were served warrants of arrest issued by RTC Branch 65 Judge Glenda Go for illegal drugs
