Anti-illegal drug operatives arrested a couple with suspected shabu worth nearly P7 million in a sting operation in Datu Odin Sinsuat, Maguindanao del Norte.
According to the Police Regional Office-Bangsamoro Autonomous Region (PRO-BAR), the suspects allegedly moved the transaction site from Barangay Salimbao, Sultan Kudarat to Barangay Poblacion Dalican in Datu Odin Sinsuat.
After the undercover policeman who acted as a poseur buyer signaled the completion of the drug deal, the operating team then arrested a female vendor and her husband.
A big pack of suspected shabu weighing around one kilo was seized from the suspects.
Meanwhile, another couple was arrested for allegedly selling drugs in General Santos City.
Police seized sachets of suspected shabu worth more than P3.5 million from a 46-year-old man and his live-in partner.
The two couples are now detained and will face charges for alleged violation of the Comprehensive Dangerous Drugs Act (RA 9165).
