MAGUINDANAO, Philippines — Agents seized P2.8 milion worth of shabu from two dealers arrested in Datu Odin Sinsuat town Friday, two days after the fall of another in a P3.4 million entrapment deal in a barangay nearby. Juvenal Azurin, director of the Philippine Drug Enforcement Agency-Bangsamoro Autonomous Region in Muslim, said Friday the relatives Kenny Pulalon and Fhai Pulalon are now detained. They were nabbed in the act of selling to plainclothes PDEA-BARMM agents P2.8 million worth of shabu in Barangay Taviran in Datu Odin Sinsuat, Maguindanao. Azurin said the sting that resulted in the arrest of the duo was laid with the help of the Army’s 2nd Mechanized Infantry Battalion and personnel of the municipal police offices in Datu Odin Sinsuat and in Kabuntalan, both in the first district of Maguindanao. PDEA-BARMM agents confiscated P3.4 million worth of shabu from Rakim, a member of the outlawed Bangsamoro Islamic Freedom Fighters.
