ZAMBOANGA CITY -- Authorities have conducted surprised inspection at the detention facility of the Bureau of Jail Management and Penology (BJMP), but found no illegal drugs.

Officials said Saturday the surprised inspection was conducted jointly by the Philippine Drug Enforcement Agency (PDEA), local police and BJMP around 4 a.m. Saturday at the Zamboanga City Reformatory Center (ZCRC) along Dr. Varela Street, Barangay Zone I.

Anju Villanueva, team leader of the local PDEA agents, said the inspection, dubbed as "Oplan Galugad", was conducted in orderly manner and yielded no illegal drugs.

The joint inspection team was backed by K-9 dogs.

The inspection team also noted that the facility at the ZCRC is clean and well-maintained.

Supt. Allan Vargas, ZCRC warden, said the maintenance of cleanliness at the detention facility is in line with the campaign of Chief Supt. Deogracias Tapayan, BJMP acting director.

Tapayan implemented the cleanliness program dubbed as "Oplan Linis Piitan" when he assumed as the acting director of the BJMP.

The program is aimed to maintain good sanitation in all of the detention facilities that are under the administration of the BJMP. (PNA)
