PLt. Col. Sherlock Gabana, BCPO spokesman, said that 351.1 grams of suspected shabu with a market value of P2,387,280, were seized by BCPO units in five police operations that netted five drug suspects who are now facing charges for violation of RA 9165, known as the Comprehensive Dangerous Drug Act of 2002.

In the campaign against wanted persons, BCPO arrested 15 wanted persons, while 72 others were apprehended for illegal gambling, yielding P11,695 in cash bets.
