Cops nab NPA, HVI; seize P2.8-M shabu


Policemen have arrested a communist New People’s Army (NPA) combatant and a high-value individual (HVI) in separate anti-drug operations in the region, officials said Friday.

Brig. Gen. Jesus Cambay Jr., Police Regional Office-9 (PRO-9) director, said NPA rebel Marlon Barol Narciso, who is also listed as an HVI, was arrested by the Regional Drug Enforcement Unit-9 (RDEU-9) in a buy-bust operation on Thursday in Barangay Bigong, Tigbao, Zamboanga del Sur.

Narciso, 33, yielded some PHP6,800 worth of suspected shabu, PHP1,000 marked money, a homemade pistol, ammunition, and other pieces of evidence.

Meanwhile, police identified the other captured HVI as Nadzmin Misba, 27, who was arrested by the Zamboanga City Police Office (ZCPO) in a buy-bust operation Thursday evening in Barangay Talon-Talon here.

Capt. Edwin Duco, PRO-9 information officer, said authorities confiscated from Misba's possession some 200 grams of suspected shabu with an estimated value of PHP2.8 million, and other pieces of evidence.

Duco said charges for violation of the Comprehensive Dangerous Drugs Act of 2002 will be filed against the arrested suspects.

Cambay said additional charges for violation of the Republic Act No. 10591, otherwise known as the Comprehensive Firearms and Ammunition Regulation Act, will be filed against Narciso
