ELEMENTS of the Biñan City Police Office yesterday busted a notorious drug ring in the city and confiscated a huge amount of illegal drugs from the suspects.

Supt. Leo Luna, city police chief, in his report to Laguna police director Senior Supt. Gilbert Cruz and PRO4-A director, Chief Supt. Gil Meneses, said arrested during the buy-bust operation at a house in Nangka St., Garcia Subdivision, were  Lea Maliawao, 23; Edwin Nuñez, 40; Clayza Ferwelo, 24; Augusto Yambao, 45; and Edgar Salido, 39.

Luna said they also confiscated some 110 grams of suspected shabu, a weighing scale, shabu paraphernalia and the marked money used during the operation.

The volume of the seized illegal drugs is considered as the biggest haul confiscated by the entire Calabarzon Police Office in recent months from a single anti-drug operation.

Luna added the suspects and the confiscated evidence have been transferred immediately at the regional police headquarters in Camp Vicente Lim for appropriate action.    Roy Tomandao
