The Philippine Drug Enforcement Agency (PDEA) and the Quezon City Police District nabbed a supplier of party drugs during a buy-bust operation in Quezon City last Wednesday.
PDEA spokesperson Derrick Arnold Carreon said the suspect, Jhun Cabaya alias “SkyHigh’’, was arrested at around 5:20 p.m. in Barangay South Triangle.
Seized from the suspect were 23 ecstasy tablets worth P39,100; 300 liters of liquid ecstasy amounting to P90,000; 25 “fly high” capsules valued at P42,500, the buy-bust money, and a cellular phone.
Anti-narcotics authorities said that party drug users mix a drop of liquid ecstasy in their drinks to get high.
The operation was carried out by the PDEA Special Enforcement Service (SES) led by Alpha team leader Jeffrey Baguidudol in coordination with the QCPD.
Cabaya is facing charges for violation of Section 5 and Section 11 of Article 2 of Republic Act 9165 or the Comprehensive Dangerous Drugs Act of 2002.
