After a month of surveillance, agents initiated a buy-bust operation which led to the confiscation of around 6 kilos of kush with an estimated street value of P7.2 million and numerous drug paraphernalia.

Arrested were live-in-partners running the repacking of the marijuana inside a two-storey house.

According to Pabilona, the suspects were in a pot session while undercover agents were conducting the operation.

The kush, which was imported from California, was already packed and ready for distribution as agents stormed the house, Pabilona said.

“Normally, yung mga customers dito are mga high end customers, mga celebrities,” he adds.
