Voters identification seized from Dekoy identified himself only as Halel Boyesan, no address and no age.
“We are still verifying their true identity they have given when they were arrested kay basin nag-alias ra kini sila,” he said.
Ebsolo said the suspects are considered as part of the big-time drug dealer considering that they are transacting big amounts of money for illegal drugs. Police are conducting follow-up investigation to identify other suspected big-time drug dealers specially operating on upper barangay in the city.
Recovered and seized from their possession is one big packs of suspected shabu weighing five grams and P7,000 marked money.
Ebsolo said they conducted a buy-bust operation against the suspects who posed as retailer of garments along Cogon Public Market when they were identified by other suspected drug pushers and Tokhang surrendereer that they arrested several weeks ago.
“Gipahigayon dayun namo ang surveillance hangtud nga naka buy-bust na dayun kami,” he said.
