00:21On the side of this road in Barangay San Juan in Quintarizal, the police arrested the man who allegedly pushed an illegal drug.
00:32The Quintarizal Police Department carried out a by-bust operation at 4 am last Sunday.
00:39According to the police, it was the drug personalities who were first arrested by the operatives who pointed to the suspect, a.k.a. Spanga.

00:51We prepared a validation to confirm the veracity of the information.

01:12Based on the investigation, the drug supply of the suspect, which he was selling in Cainta, Taytay, Antipolo and Binangonan in Rizal, is from Taguig.
01:21What they do in the transaction of selling through online payment and then to the left, you will see in one place, sometimes there is a dead drop.
01:32The suspect did not respond directly to the charge of selling, but he admitted that he was using drugs.
01:39Maybe it's because I was young, we were in the same boat.
01:43He did not continue to use drugs.
01:47Then what about the selling?
01:49I cannot answer that, ma'am.
01:51Only my court can answer that, ma'am.
01:53According to the police records, the suspect was previously jailed for drugs in 2018 and 2021.
02:00It was also discovered that there is an arrest warrant for the suspect who was arrested in Binangonan in 2023 for participating in illegal drug trading.
