BANGUED, Abra – The shipment of illegal drugs these days is evolving. Suppliers and traders are looking into new ways of transporting these prohibited substances down to barangays and one of the commonly used modes of shipment is through courier services.
Philippine Drug Enforcement Agency – Abra Provincial Officer Emerson Joshua Santiago warned folks to refrain from receiving parcels and packages in behalf of unidentified person.
This is reportedly a modus wherein an illegal drug trader pays a person with cash to receive their package that unknowingly contains illegal drugs.
“Kailangan natin na paalalahanan ang mga Abrenian na hwag magpagamit sa mga taong di kakilala” (Let us remind Abrenians not to allow themselves to be used by people they don’t know), Santiago said.
To avert entry of illegal drugs in the province, PDEA-Abra and the Philippine National Police conduct regular K9 random sweeping on parcels and packages stored in warehouses and distribution hubs of courier and shipping services here like LBC, JRS express and Ninja Van Services.
They also inspect inbound cargo vehicles at the provincial entry point in barangays Tangadan in San Quintin.
Santiago added

barangay drug-clearing operations to ride the province of illegal drugs. – PIA
