A former barangay captain in Bayawan City, Negros Oriental, was arrested in a buy-bust operation at around 11:30 p.m. Monday at Amparos Village in the city, conducted by the Provincial Anti-Illegal Drugs Special Operations Task Group, and in coordination with other law enforcement agencies.
PAIDSOTG chief, Insp. Ryan Jay Orapa, identified the suspect as Axel Quindo Alcantara, of legal age and married. He was apprehended when he allegedly sold suspected shabu, worth about P15,000, to an undercover agent.
The operation was conducted in coordination with the Bayawan police station, led by Senior Insp. Avell Laborte, city police chief, and representatives from the local Philippine Drug Enforcement Agency.
