‘Shabu' seized,
suspect evades arrest
BY JUANCHO GALLARDE

A drug suspect evaded arrest but two packs of suspected shabu, weighing 20 grams and worth about P236,000, were seized from his house in Purok Orchids, Sitio Canday-ong, Barangay Calindagan in Dumaguete City recently.

A composite team from the Provincial Anti-Illegal Drugs-Special Operations Task Group, the National Bureau of Investigation, and the Dumaguete Police swooped down on the house of Ernesto Caba, alias “Erning”, 54, on the strength of a search warrant issued by Executive Judge Gerardo Paguio Jr.

The operation was witnessed by barangay kagawad George Paloma and the media, but the respondent was not around when the operatives arrived. The raiding team, however, recovered two “bultos (big packs)” of suspected shabu and one small sachet containing suspected shabu residue.

SU student to
compete in math tilt

A fifth grader from Silliman University Elementary Department in Dumaguete City will join the Philippine delegation to the International Mathematics Competition July 31 to August 3 in Singapore, a press release from SU said.

Carlos Miguel Angelo Salazar was among the 48 students from around the Philippines who made it through a series of rigorous training and examinations. He was the only one from Negros Oriental, who clinched a spot in the final stretch of the selection process.

He is a consistent honor student and has competed in the same international math competition in Hong Kong in the last two years, and had won one bronze and two silver medals.
