00:00 A lawyer and his accomplice were arrested in the Bybass Operation that resulted in the confiscation of more than a billion pesos worth of the so-called "shabu".
00:13 This is the surprise of Vel Custodio.
00:16 This woman was found in Taranta when she was hit in the Bybass Operation in Central Dilimat, Quezon City.
00:29 You are not allowed to do this. You are the one who is guilty. You have the right to call your own lawyer.
00:35 That's not my fault. That's not my fault.
00:38 The illegal drugs were confiscated by the police.
00:43 Sir, please kill me.
00:46 The woman's accomplice is a lawyer.
00:48 But he was unable to defend himself after they were confiscated the almost 1.4 million pesos worth of the so-called "shabu".
00:57 We have arrested two high-value individuals.
01:01 They are an attorney and a former prisoner.
01:06 But they were released because they appealed to the Court of Appeals.
01:12 Actually, the report is coming from the community.
01:16 They are asking from time to time.
01:18 Almost every day, they have different faces.
01:21 Most of the time, there are transactions at night. There are motorbikes and cars that enter a house in Quezon City.
01:34 The community was alarmed. That's what the barangay reported.
01:39 The barangay informed the DDEU and the PDEA.
01:45 The District Drug Enforcement Unit of the QCPD and PDEA investigated the suspects for two months.
01:50 The actual alpha that we used, the asset that we used, is inside there.
01:56 One of the paroquians.
01:58 So that's what we convinced to arrest this high-value individual.
02:05 Because there are people who want to arrest him.
02:10 Because they are thinking of a group of lawyers, a family of lawyers.
02:14 We know that.
02:15 So there are always counter-charges.
02:17 Actually, the first report we received was even bigger.
02:21 We got more than that.
02:24 That's why the others were distributed.
02:26 That's 202 grams.
02:31 That's what we got.
02:34 But what we were reported was half a kilo.
02:37 Authorities have already arrested a long line of illegal drug-dealing paroquians.
02:43 Currently, the individuals arrested are under monitoring.
02:47 Aside from the alleged drug-dealing paroquians,
02:49 a weighing scale of P81,000 by bus money, cell phone and bag was also confiscated.
02:55 The arrested suspects refused to give a statement.
02:58 Two cases of Comprehensive Dangerous Drugs Act of 2002 will be faced.
