THREE ALLEGED drug pushers were caught in a sting operation by enforcement agents and police in Baguio City Friday afternoon that yielded more than half a million worth of shabu (methamphetamine), the biggest bust in the city so far this year. Online seller and English teacher Brian Leonille Valdes Dris, Aaron Paul de Guzman Vergara and a woman whose name police did not disclose were arrested after Mr. Dris sold a plastic sachet of shabu to an undercover agent in his rented apartment along Asin Road. Aside from the sachet of shabu sold by Mr. Dris, authorities seized two more heat-sealed transparent plastic sachets of shabu, a heat-sealed transparent plastic sachet containing dried marijuana leaves, drug paraphernalia and the buy-bust money. The confiscated shabu, weighing around 105 grams, has an estimated the value of P525,000. Mr. Vergara, who is out on bail, has a pending case for drug possession. — philstar.com
