PHILIPPINE National Police (PNP) Officer in Charge LtGen. Vicente Danao Jr. said Central Visayas police seized P105 million worth of illegal drugs in two separate buy-bust operations in Cebu and near Osmeña Wharf in Barangay Poblacion, Lapu-Lapu City, Cebu on Saturday, June 25. Danao identified the suspects as Eric Felisilda, 46, and Neil James Vallesquina, alias Bolantoy, 28. Taken from them were 15 kilos of shabu worth about P102 million. The perpetrators also had a sack bag, backpack, two paper bags, a mobile phone, an identification card and the buy-bust money. On the same day, Danao said authorities also arrested during a string of other operations in Bacong, Negros Oriental, a suspect with some 200 grams of shabu estimated at P1.3 million; two from Talisay City, Cebu, with 150 grams of shabu valued at P1,020,000; and two more were nabbed in Toledo City, Cebu, with 100.12 grams, estimated at P680,816. 'I congratulate our drug enforcement operatives for another big accomplishment. This only signifies that our PNP operations will be more aggressive on illegal drugs, especially against high-value personalities and syndicates. Your PNP will not stop until the last person in the drug list is put to jail,' Danao said.
