SINAS : PNP CRACKS DOWN ON PARTY DRUGS, PARCEL FROM NETHERLANDS YIELDS 535 TABLETS
A shipment of 535 tablets of Ecstacy party drugs earlier confiscated by the Bureau of Customs was turned over to NAIA-Inter-Agency Drug Interdiction Task Group (NAIA-IADITG) on Friday.
In a report to PNP Chief, Police General Debold M Sinas, Brigadier General Ronald Lee, Director of PNP Drug Enforcement Group (PNP-DEG) said the seized drugs estimated to be worth P1-million was intercepted earlier by Bureau of Customs personnel concealed in an air parcel at Central Mail Exchange Center (CMEC) after a thorough examination of the air parcel originating from the Netherlands and declared as documents.
A subsequent laboratory test conducted by the PDEA confirmed the tablets as methylenedioxy-methamphetamine (MDMA) or Ecsatacy. A popular synthetic party drug, Lee said
He said the seized contraband was further turned over to PDEA for further investigation and possible prosecution of individuals involved in the illegal importation for violation of the Comprehensive Dangerous Drugs Act of 2002 (RA No. 9165) and Section 1401 Customs Modernization and Tariff Act (RA No. 10863).
"The crackdown on illegal drugs targets shabu, marijuana and so-called party drugs like ecstacy. The PNP is fully aware of how resourceful these narco-syndicates have become, but make no mistake. We will go after you.” Sinas warned.
The official turnover was witnessed by representatives of NAIA-IADITG member agencies composed of PDEA, PNP DEG, PNP AVSEGRP, NBI, BOC, BI, and MIAA/APD.
A few days ago, PNP-DEG seized 2,800 Ectacy pills during a series of operations in Cainta, Rizal and Ermita, Manila
